The Mervin Sauvignon Alto Adige DOC Riserva from Cantina Merano is a delicious white wine whose origins date back many years. In fact, its origins trace back to the times when some wine pioneers had the insight to plant vines of this ancient French variety on the sunlit eastern slopes at 500 m above sea level around Castel Lebenberg above the village of Cermes. Since then, the belief has always remained the same: only the best clones of Sauvignon Blanc for the most appropriate areas, maintaining low yields. The morning sun, the winds descending from the slope, and the soil rich in slate and quartz provide the ideal conditions for a mineral, fine, and flavorful white wine, with a pleasant acidity sensation. A delight for the palate with a subtle hint of wood. Grape varieties: 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Soils: sandy, clayey, enriched with humus, light, permeable, and of morainic origin. Age of the vines: 10-20 years. Vinification: cold maceration for 12 hours, followed by alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperature in small stainless steel and oak wine tanks. The aging of the wine takes place for about 5 months on the lees.
