Light and easy drinking, accentuated fruit and discreet toasted almond on the finish.
Description: Once the Vernatsch grapes become fully ripe in these sun-drenched sites the grape stalks become reddish in colour and local growers call them "Roatfiassler" ("red-legged") in the local dialect. Hence the name. Bright ruby in colour, intensely fruity on the nose reminiscent of summer berry fruits and cherry; mellow on the palate with supple tannins, mild but refreshing acidity and attractive bitterness on the finish.
Food Choices: An ideal partner for full-flavoured starters, meaty fish and pasta dishes, pork and poultry, cold cuts of meat - especially speck -, salami and mild cheeses.
Grape Variety: 100% Vernatsch (aka Schiava) old pergola trained vines.
Sites: Schreckbichl / Girlan; hillside vineyards at altitudes between 410-440 m; soils are mainly morainal with sand and eroded porphyry.
