Alto Adige Lagrein

I hope I have the correct wine here. Drank it and got rid of the bottle too soon 🤪 I will definitely buy this again. A big pour for a big wine. Paired perfectly with grilled steak. Needs time to open up for sure but then it just bursts with flavor! TGIF! — a month ago

Praepositus Valle Isarco / Eisacktaler Kerner 2021

Lovely wine. A nice creaminess and vanilla combined with a Grüner Veltliner like crispness. Great with Indian Punjabi Goat and Fish Moilee. It can handle the spice. — 3 months ago

Alto Adige Pinot Grigio

2022 vintage.
Pale, straw yellow colour.
Honeydew melon, citrus and wild flowers on the nose.
Crisp pear, lemon verbena, white peach and bitter almond flavours.
Crisp acidity but with mineral finish.
The majority is fermented in stainless steel but 1/3 is fermented and rested in neutral oak cask…adding depth and texture..
Grilled local Albacore Tuna tataki was wonderful with this wine.

Praepositus Valle Isarco / Eisacktaler Sylvaner 2022

By far the best one from their white range.
Aged partially in acacia barrels, this shows a lovely blend of ripe pears, a touch of underripe white peach, a fresh herby mineral note - quite round yet so clean & precise.
Quite some presence on the palate. Medium body, zingy mineral acidity, beautiful mineral depth. Almost as if a slight tannic bite. Great balance & purity, beautiful long finish.
Blind I would have taken this for a racy Pinot Blanc.
Such a nice one!

Veltliner 2021

Pale lemon color with aromas of white flesh fruits, spice and herb notes. On the palate flavors of white peach, apple and tangy lemon citrus with smoky earthy tones and spice. Good balance, medium finish ending with lemon zest, wet stone and pepper spice notes. Very Nice value. — 8 months ago

Advertised as Italian cab - but lighter, wetter finish. Not overly dry or sweet. Very good. Complex flavor profile. — a month ago

Praepositus Alto Adige Valle Isarco Grüner Veltliner 2015

Delectable - this was a Kerner not a Gruner Veltliner. Had this at our son’s Wedding Dinner. No notes but have not had many Kerners in my time. Like a hypothetical cross between a Riesling and a Chardonnay. — 7 months ago
