Year 2021
Product name Alto Adige Metodo Classico Pas Dose 2021
Color Brilliant straw yellow.
Perfume The bouquet embraces notes of yellow flowers (broom, calicanto) and both fresh and ripe yellow-fleshed fruit (banana, mango) with nuances of yeast.
Taste On the palate, it asserts itself in freshness and dynamism, sustained by a very fine, enveloping carbonic acidity, perfectly integrated in the sensation of energy and plasticity conveyed by the long resting time on the lees, with the aromatic range of floral notes, ripe and crisp fruit and herbs to enhance the luminously alpine character in a long f inal.
Pairings This sparkling wine’s breadth of aromas and creamy mouthfeel, despite the absence of residual sugars, make it extraordinarily versatile and great at bringing out the best in flavoursome starters, pasta and rice dishes, especially seafood and shellfish. It is equally suited to accompanying firm-textured foods (meaty, large fish, and white meats), as boldly salty foods (oily f ish, caviar) and rich sauces or fatty favourites from traditional Italian cooking. A highly recommended companion to Asian seafood dishes, especially those from Japan.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1919
  • Oenologist: Josef Romen
  • Bottles produced: 290.000
  • Hectares: 55
A historic winery immersed in the vineyards of South Tyrol since 1919, a witness and messenger of the knowledge of time. An avant-garde winery in search of new scenarios to explore.

Tradition as a value to be handed down, and progress as a vision to be perpetuated. Innovators, but with the awareness that one must not abandon the heritage of tradition, preserved as a fundamental bond with the land and one's own history.

One example is the architecture of the Kettmeir winery, preserved intact since the Second World War as a precious testimony to its past. And it is in the historic wine cellar, where both the wines rest in barrels and the classic method sparkling wines on ancient pupitres, that part of Kettmeir's success is realised under the watchful eye of oenologist Josef Romen.

The other place is the vineyards, stretching from Kaltern to the Ebnicherhof to Salurn, where Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Moscato rosa and many other grape varieties grow, cultivated with absolute care, respecting all their varietal peculiarities. In every grape, the history of this land. In every drop, the know-how of its people. In every bubble, a way of being.
