MÜLLER THURGAU Vallagarina IGT Fizzy wine

Production area:

This vine owes its name to the famous botanist Dr. Hermann Müller Thurgau and is the result of a blend between Rheinland Riesling and Sylvaner. Originally grown in Switzerland, it was then widely planted in Austria and eventually in the Italian region of Alto Adige, where it found the most suitable soil for growing. It yields a wine with very delicate aromas.

Vinification system:

The vinification technique is extremely important, indeed vital. Even the small mistake during vinification would irreparably affect wine quality. For this reason the popularity of Trentino Doc Muller Thargau is only restricted to a few high-tech regions.The wine becomes bubbly inside low-temperature pressure tanks, where selected yeasts are added to the wine.
