The Sophie is a cuvée of 92% Chardonnay with 4% each of Viognier and Sauvignon blanc. Half of the grapes come from the Lieben Aich vineyard in Terlan and half from the Mazzon vineyard in Kaltern. Lieben Aich is a warm, west-facing slope at 300 metres above sea level. Chardonnay and Sauvignon are grown there on loamy sandy soil interspersed with weathered porphyry rock. Chardonnay and Viognier on Mazzon form the steepest vineyard in Manincor with a gradient of up to 100 %. Exposed to the south-west at 350-400 metres with calcareous, clayey soil. The grapes were harvested by hand at the beginning of September and left in the press for four hours until maceration to extract flavour and structure. Fermentation took place spontaneously with the grapes’ own yeasts in wooden containers of different sizes. The Sophie was matured for nine months on the fine lees.

Sophie is vibrant and concentrated, with notes of apple, apricot, lime, and marzipan set against a backdrop of racy acidity and wet stone minerality. Fermented in oak barrels & aged on fine lees for 9 months, this is a wine capable of aging, yet certainly drinkable now.

€ 27,00 NO VAT (private collection) The Sauvignon Quintessenz wafts up with a pretty bouquet of lemon zest and gooseberry complicated by hints of crushed stone. It’s silky and supple on the palate, with vibrant acidity motivating tart orchard fruits. This leaves a sour citrus tension and a saline mineral twang while finishing potent yet fresh.- By Eric Guido on December 2022

€ 45,00 NO VAT (private collection)The 2022 Gewurztraminer Altenbourg has a lovely ivy edge on the nose alongside peach, peppery and fragrant. The palate is alive with peachy sweetness, juicy and rose petal tinged, beautifully rounded with a frame of bitter orange zest, rich but well-contoured. The zestiness and pithiness counter the 34 g/L of residual sugar, adding their lovely bitterness to this gently sweet wine. Together, they make the mouth water. (Off-Dry)

€ 29,00 NO VAT (private collection) The Pinner dazzles with its pink-tinged, golden-amber color and bouquet of dusty dried flowers, young mango and crushed stone. There are depths of silky textures here, carried across a medium-bodied frame while neatly contrasted by zesty acids and minerals. Ripe orchard fruits and cooling herbal tones resonate from start to finish, yet the end note here is lip-smacking sour tropical citrus. The Pinner is a varietal Pinot Noir, but not technically a Rosé, which takes its color from spending nine months sur lie in stainless steel with daily bâtonnage. - Eric Guid0- By Vinous on May 2021
