Description
Wine profile
The Valle Isarco Grüner Veltliner from Pacher Hof is an Alto Adige protected designation of origin white wine, fermented in steel and matured on fine lees for six months. In the glass, it presents a bright straw-yellow colour with greenish highlights and a delicately spicy bouquet of aromatic herb notes and pepper. On the palate, vibrant freshness joins a solid structure, offering an elegant sip that is excellent when paired with fish dishes and cheese selections.
Provenance
The Grüner Veltliner grapes are grown in the Novacella vineyards, in the heart of the Isarco Valley, a premier area for Alpine viticulture. The plants thrive between 650 and 900 metres above sea level, benefiting from a mountain microclimate that favours the optimal development of aromatic precursors. Guyot-trained, the vines take root in gravelly soils particularly rich in minerals. This high-altitude configuration carves the identity of the fruit, giving the wine a bold character and a natural purity firmly linked to its land of origin.
Production
The vinification begins with fermentation in steel, a technique aimed at preserving the integrity of the grape's primary aromas and ensuring extreme olfactory cleanliness. Subsequently, the wine undergoes maturation on fine lees for six months inside steel tanks. This phase enriches the roundness of the sip and expands its volume, while preserving the variety's fresh tension intact. The result is an essential process that respects the soul of the raw material, providing a balanced taste profile true to its altitudes of origin.
History and interesting facts
The Grüner Veltliner from Pacher Hof Huber is produced on a historic estate founded in 1142. On the slopes of Novacella, at an altitude of between 650 and 900 metres, the Guyot-trained vines take root in gravelly soils, benefiting from an ideal mountain microclimate. Oenologist Andreas Huber interprets the 2025 vintage of the Alto Adige Valle Isarco DOC appellation through vinification in steel and careful ageing on the fine lees for six months. This artisanal process enhances its rich minerality, deeply linking this white wine to the striking alpine landscape.
