Description
Alto Adige Terlano Sauvignon 2018 Messnerhof
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc 100%
Straw yellow color
The nose is intense, complex and for the quality of the perfumes and their sharpness, very fine. It has hints of citrus fruits, such as lemon, cedar, and in particular grapefruit. White flowers follow, with elderberry and tomato leaf and nettle among the green notes.
In the mouth it is superb, for minerality and more generally for the intertwining of soft hardness. The entrance and the silkiness with which it relaxes on the palate is remarkable. Long and persistent with grapefruit and some marine notes to return in retro olfaction.

South Tyrol is certainly one of the Italian areas capable of producing excellent Sauvignon Blanc. Terlano, in turn, is the municipality where Sauvignon Blanc manages to express itself to the best of its potential. We add Bernard’s knowledge and skills and get an excellent Sauvignon in everything.
The Messnerhof farm has been growing grapes for over a century, but only in 2003 Bernard decided to open his company and bottle the wine he produces. It is part of the independent winemakers, because it exclusively cultivates its 2.9 hectares of property.
