Description
Still white wine, Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT, 12.5% ABV, produced by Franz Haas. 100% Müller Thurgau, 0.75 L bottle, 2023 vintage. A wine born from the Franz Haas winery, passed down through eight generations, with the philosophy of continually striving for perfection. After a brief maceration to promote aromatic extraction, the must is delicately pressed. The must is then fermented at a controlled temperature in steel tanks. Aged in steel for approximately five months and then briefly in the bottle. Aromas reminiscent of notes of Muscat, fresh fruit, peaches, and flowers (yellow primrose). Straw yellow. It finishes with an elegant and savory taste and a very pleasant finish.

Franz Haas is not just a winery, it is not just a brand. Franz Haas is a man, a family who has been producing wine for seven generations, and for seven generations has put into its wines the same philosophy of life: the constant and endless pursuit of perfection. Each Franz Haas with his own touch and style.
According to Franz Haas, science and calculations are indeed necessary to obtain superb wines, but it is love, passion, and determination that are essential to give them character and complexity.
It takes art, the one you have in your blood, a loving creative genius, like the one of Franz Haas VII, who today leads the winery with his team. Read more
