From the importer: Gojer's estate, Glögglhof, is right in the middle of the St. Magdalena hill, a perfect amphitheater just North-East of the city of Bolzano. Franz, the 5th generation to make wine at Glögglhof, is one of the 'gang of four,' a group of fine small producers from the Alto Adige who share a philosophy of winemaking: very expressive, very typical, very well-made wines.

Karneid, the vineyard site, is a high-altitude plot on the other side of the valley from the winery. These Schiava vines were already very old (plnated 1948!) when the Gojer’s purchased the site, hence the name ‘Alte Reben’, which means ‘Old Vines’. Mouthwatering and savory, with notes of pomegranate and herbs. An excellent complement to most pork dishes and great with salum -

Marco Bonfante Moscato d'Asti Blue Label 2020Special Price $9.98 Regular Price $14.98Availability:In StockA classic example of the breed, grown in calcareous clay marl in a relatively dense planting (5000 vines per hectare), and soft pressed into temperature-controlled tanks. It ferments to a modest 5.5% alcohol and the fermentation process also creates the carbon dioxide to make the wine frizzante, keeping it fresh, bright, and lively across the palate. Brisk acidity gives everything a lift.

Colterenzio Schiava St. Magdalener Alto Adige 2020$14.98Availability:In StockFrom the importer: This wine takes its name of the vineyard where the grapes are grown. With wonderful aromatics and soft tannins, this Schiava is a great summer red. Served slightly chilled.
Varietal Composition: 95% Schiava (Vernatsch), 5% Lagrein
Elaboration: Fermentation occurs with the skin contact in stainless-steel tanks and is followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine is then separated from the skins and transferred into concrete tanks, where it refines for four months.
Tasting Notes: Brilliant translucent ruby red in color with a fruity bouquet reminiscent of black cherry and violets expanding to a medium-bodied palate of red summer fruits; a succulent wine with mild acidity, medium length, and a soft and smooth finish.
