At Kellerei Kurtatsch, particular importance is placed on environmentally friendly winemaking that preserves the authentic taste of the terroir. The Cabernet vines for this red wine from the Terroir line stand on sandy or gravelly soils rich in dolomite on slopes or steep hillsides between 250-350m above sea level. The grapes from small parcel vineyards with throttled yields (60hl\/ha) are hand-picked at the optimal ripeness and quickly brought in small crates to the newly built, impressive winery in Kurtatsch. There, they were destemmed according to the specifications of winemaker Erwin Carli and gently pressed after temperature-controlled mash fermentation in a rotary tank. The aging takes place first in French barriques for 12 months, followed by further aging in large oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kellerei Kurtatsch cultivates a deep connection to nature and its home in South Tyrol.
