Sauvignon Quarz 2023 – Depth, Freshness & Precision

A bright yellow-green glows in the glass. On the nose, an aromatic interplay of mango, papaya, lime, red grapefruit, and lemongrass , accompanied by mint, lemon balm, and a hint of flint .

On the palate , exotic fruit, freshness and delicate minerality combine to create a powerful, yet elegant wine with a long finish.

💡 The Sauvignon Quarz 2023 is considered one of the best white wines in South Tyrol – an iconic Sauvignon Blanc from Terlan that combines alpine clarity and Mediterranean finesse.

🌿 Terroir & Soil

The foundation of quartz's success: sandy-loamy soils of volcanic origin , interspersed with quartz porphyry with up to 60% quartz content .

These mineral-rich, water-permeable soils with a slightly acidic pH produce wines that impress with their saltiness, tension, and longevity .

The Terlano microclimate – hot days, cool nights – gives the grapes their incomparable aroma and balance.

🪵 Vinification & Aging

The grapes are harvested and selected by hand .

After gentle whole grape pressing, the must is naturally sedimented , followed by slow fermentation at a controlled temperature .

The wine matures for 9 months on the fine lees , which gives it structure, texture and depth.
