Valle Isarco, Alto Adige (Italy) Vernatsch 2022

Nov 24, 2023

By Roger Morris

 In the mixture of Austrian and Italian cultures and languages that is Alto Adige or Sudtirol, this winery goes with the German name Vernatsch as opposed to the Italian name Schiava.  This version is lively, light and spicy, with red cherry fruit and a crisp finish.  However, the finish itself comes off as a tad too sweet / fruity for the rest of the wine.
