Description

Description: 
Falkenstein's Riesling Alte Rebe is a very representative white wine with a bright golden yellow color. The aromas that envelop the nose have notes of citrus and yellow pulp fruit, embellished with mineral touches and more spicy nuances. On the palate it is complex and multifaceted. It is striking for its freshness, a characteristic that encourages repeated drinking. This Vinschgau Riesling “Alte Reben” is a concentrate of personality, endowed with great completeness of taste, and with an excellently developed olfactory spectrum. The harmonious overall picture of this exceptional wine is framed by a vibrant acidity and a wonderful freshness, which ensure long life and further refinement in the bottle. 

Grape variety: 
Riesling - South Tyrol Alto Adige Val Venosta DOC 

Production area: 
Naturno - Vinschgauer Sonnenberg. The bedrock, the dry warmth during the day and the cool nights offer excellent conditions for the Vinschgau Riesling to thrive in a steep, south-facing position between 600 and 900 meters above sea level. 

Vinification: 
The grapes are harvested by hand later than the other Riesling plots. Then they are gently processed and fermented at a controlled temperature in large acacia wood barrels. Maturation takes place in the same acacia barrels for ten months on the fine lees. After bottling, the Riesling remains in store for a further 24 months before being placed on the market. Franz and Bernadette Pratzner planted their first Riesling grapes more than 30 years ago. The small vineyard yields just 1,500 bottles per year. 

Food Pairing: 
The wine goes very well with fish dishes, seafood and shellfish, but also with medium-aged cheeses. 

Serving temperature: 
10 - 12°C. 

Ageing potential: 
more than  10 years. 

Bottle to: 
750 ml - 75 cl - 0,75 lt. 

Allergens: 
Wine can contain sulphites. 

Producer: 
Falkenstein Winery 
The Falkenstein farm winery & vineyard is to be found on the slopes of the Sonnenburg Mountain in Naturns. The story begins in 1989, when Franz and Bernadette Pratzner decided to abandon their apple orchards and dedicate themselves exclusively to viticulture. The impervious terrain of primary rock, exposed to the south, lends itself perfectly to the growing of vines. The grape vines extend over an area of twelve hectares at altitudes of between 590–900 m a.s.l., producing around 90,000 bottles per year. The vineyards are dedicated mostly to white grapes, with a small part for Pinot Noir. Among the varieties cultivated, Riesling is the most outstanding. Franz and Bernadette work mostly manually, with machinery employed only in a supportive capacity. Since 2003, all wine-making is carried out in the purposely-built wine cellar. The architect responsible absorbed into the design the family’s desire to create a harmony between the old and the new. For this reason a wine cellar in stone was built, joined to the more modern building, in which the white wines are today perfected.
