In this South Tyrolean red wine, Merlot (60%), Cabernet Franc (30%), and Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) merge into an exciting cuvée that displays captivating richness and elegance. On the palate, the Curtis impresses with soft tannins contributed by the Merlot, blackcurrant fruit typical of Cabernet Sauvignon, and a peppery spice attributable to the Cabernet Franc. This versatile red wine pairs excellently with game dishes, dark meats, and strong, aged cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSouth Tyrolean Wine Quality that Convinces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurtis, the name of this red wine, means \"a higher-lying farm\" in Latin. The wine village of Kurtatsch owes its name to this term. Anyone who assumes that the international red wine varieties Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon were only planted in South Tyrol in recent decades is mistaken. In fact, Bordeaux varieties were already planted in Kurtatsch around 1900, as optimal conditions prevail here for the heat-loving grape varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis powerful, deep dark South Tyrolean red wine shows dark berry fruit of cassis and blackberries on the palate, accompanied by savory notes of pepper and juicy tannins that give the Curtis a firm structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImmerse yourself in the world of first-class wines and discover a true classic from Kellerei Kurtatsch, the Curtis Südtirol DOC 2021.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin Wine from Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrowing region South Tyrol - Alto Adige DOC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13.5% vol.

At Kellerei Kurtatsch, particular emphasis is placed on environmentally friendly wine production that preserves the authentic taste of the terroir. The Cabernet and Merlot vines for this red wine from the Selection line stand on red sandy-loamy soils with dolomite, clay minerals, and oxides in hilly locations between 220-400m above sea level. The grapes from small-parcel vineyards with reduced yields (70hl\/ha) are harvested by hand at the optimal ripeness and quickly brought in small boxes to the newly built, impressive winery in Kurtatsch. There, they were destemmed according to the specifications of cellar master Erwin Carli and gently pressed after temperature-controlled mash fermentation in stainless steel. During maturation in large wooden barrels on the fine lees, the Curtis underwent malolactic fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKellerei Kurtatsch maintains a deep connection to nature and its home of South Tyrol.
