The Rottensteiner Schiava 2025 is a translucent ruby, light-bodied red. It opens with aromas of raspberry, fresh cherry, and alfalfa. Bright acidity and smooth tannins frame playful spice, rhubarb, and a classic bitter almond finish.

HISTORY
This leading indigenous red variety of the region has been at home in Alto Adige since as early as the sixteenth century, and it is being grown with broader and broader distribution. In recent decades, the area planted was drastically reduced, and thus Schiava gained considerably in quality and right now is experiencing a Renaissance.
VINEYARDS
Our Schiava grapes grow mainly on the Nussbaumer estate in Missiano near Bolzano and also in part on the hills around Bolzano.
VINIFICATION
After fermentation at 25°C/77°F, the Schiava maturates in stainless steel tanks.
DESCRIPTION
As a light wine with moderate tannins, floral tones of violets and fresh berries, it is also a popular aperitif wine when chilled. In terms of food pairings, this allrounder shines especially with the traditional South Tyrolean cuisine
