Founded in 1848 Tiefenbrunner is considered to be a benchmark producer in the Alto-Adige region. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks followed by four months ageing on lees in concrete vats.
Bright pale straw to straw colour with a watery hue. Spicy pear and red apple skin aromas jump out of the glass trailed by hints of bees wax and quince. Mouth filling ripe pear, red apple skin and quince flavours are underscored by zippy acidity. Excellent intensity with traces of honeysuckle and spice lingering in the background. Texturally rounded it finishes dry with a long flavoursome aftertaste.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 13.5%
