The Abbazia di Novacella 2021 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Sylvaner is silky and long with jackfruit, quince, yellow papaya and passion fruit. These tropical aromas are subdued, however, and not overplayed. The wine maintains an elegant and delicate fruit profile over a lean-bodied mouthfeel.

Strikingly aromatic for a grape variety that’s sometimes criticized for its neutrality! Blackcurrants and a whole garden of fresh herbs, plus a hint of fresh pineapple! On the generous palate it’s simultaneously rather rich and very fresh, a touch of tannin harmonizing the acidity nicely at the rather bold finish. Drink now.
Wine Spectator
Lightly juicy and lithe, this creamy white shows flavors of lychee, blood orange peel, stone and white blossoms. Drink now. 5,000 cases made, 300 cases imported.

Region: Trentino/Alto Adige

Trentino-Alto Adige in northern Italy is a beautiful and fascinating wine region, with centuries of viticultural history creating a unique identity and set of flavours and aromas associated with it. Due to its closeness to the Italian borders, there are plenty of international influences found in the wines of Trentino-Alto Adige, most notably coming from the nearby Germanic countries on the other side of the Alps. The Alps play a huge role in the wine culture of the region, as the foothills provide exquisite mountain waters, as well as plenty of interesting soil types on which to grow the vines, resulting in wines full of mountain flavors, alpine aromas and a truly unique character. Wineries in the region love to use the few native grape varietals for their wines, as these are excellent for expressing the unique terroir of Trentino-Alto Adige, however, it is now more common to find better known international varietals listed on bottles, which have helped the world wake up to the wonderful wines of this special region.

Country: Italy

Italy is recognised as being one of the finest wine producing countries in the world, and it isn't difficult to see why. With a vast amount of land across the country used primarily for vineyard cultivation and wine production, each region of Italy manages to produce a wide range of excellent quality wines, each representative of the region it is produced in. Any lover of Italian wines will be able to tell you of the variety the country produces, from the deliciously astringent and alpine-fresh wines of the northern borders, to the deliciously jammy and fruit-forward wines of the south and the Italian islands. Regions such as Barolo are frequently compared with Bordeaux and Burgundy in France, as their oak aged red wines have all the complexity and earthy, spicy excellence of some of the finest wines in the world, and the sparkling wines of Asti and elsewhere in Italy can easily challenge and often exceed the high standards put forward by Champagne. Thanks to excellent terrain and climatic conditions, Italy has long since proven itself a major player in the world of wines, and long may this dedication to quality and excellence continue.
