Sanct Valentin Sauvignon - Südtirol - Alto Adige D.O.C. - St. Michael-Eppan
Grand and dignified, St. Michael-Eppan Winery has been enthroned in the center of Alto Adige’s (South Tyrol) most important wine-growing community for over a century. For more than two thousand years, wines have been grown in the area around Eppan, known for its ideal growing conditions, and it is these grapes that are being processed at St. Michael-Eppan Winery.
The vines for the Sanct Valentin Sauvignon white wine have an age of 10 to 28 years and grow in the cooperatives limestone vineyards in the St. Michael and Eppan/Berg areas at altitudes between 450 and 600 m.
The grapes were manually harvested, sorted, and destemmed. The majority (90%) of the grapes were fermented in steel tanks, inside which the wine was aged for 6 months on the lees. The remainder was fermented and aged in wood.
