Baron Di Pauli

100% Gewurztraminer.  Extremely delicious white wine, fruity -sweetie beginning and dry long finish! Literary reminisces of spice bazaars swept with warm breezes birthed by far-off sea-gazing cliffs.

Extremely concentrated and structured on the palate, reminiscent of ripe fruit with Mediterranean notes and spicy reverberations. VINIFICATION: Twelve hours’ maceration on the skins, fermentation in steel, and maturation sur lie for 5 months.  

100% Sauvignon Blanc EVERYTHING FLOWSThe Greeks knew it as kinesis: the never-ending flow of the world, the ever-becoming of all things. Light and wind, dancing together with the waters, impress themselves upon the earth that bears the vine that yields the cluster, which in turn is transformed into wine, which gifts us pleasure and beauty. In an instant, chaos returns to pure harmony … is this what we call happiness? VINTAGESummer 2015 was characterized by higher than average temperatures and lack of rainfalls. The weather situation induce us to an early harvest epoch thoughts. The heat, however, did slow the grapes development therefore we had an average harvest’s epoch which began on September 1 and ended on October 27. We immediately recognize the potential of an absolutely promising vintage when we saw the grapes quality brought to the cellar.

Grape: 100% Vernatsch/Schiava .Schiava is a Alto Adige variety that was long underrated to the point of being almost forgotten, just like the old limekiln after which the vineyard is named. Elegant power has enabled Kalkofen to rise phoenix-like from its ashes and cast a stylish spell over the world. The wine’s versatility and grace will tempt you to drop the pearl of your soul into a glass of this nectar. VINIFICATION : the small Vernatsch grapes come from the oldest vines in the vineyard, and were selected by hand for this wine. The fermentation began spontaneously in the wooden fermentation vat, with a ten-day maceration period. Following an eight month maturation period in barrique and big wood barrels, the wine was bottled in late-April. TASTING NOTES: this wine is a pure pleasure. Luminous ruby red, fruity aromas of forest berries and cherries, velvet tannins with a unique structure and minerality make this wine unique. An ideal wine to accompany light Mediterranean cuisine.  An ideal wine to accompany light Mediterranean cuisine including fish and see food dishes. Wine you drink when thirsty !

The wine has been in the bottle since April.  Tasting notes: The wine presents a bright, green yellow with golden reflections.

  Why it’s specialArzio is the flagship red from Baron di Pauli’s Arzenhof estate in Caldaro, Alto Adige (northern Italy near the Alps). It is a Bordeaux-style blend grown on mineral-rich slopes above Lake Caldaro. The 2011 shows over a decade of quiet development with dark cherry, graphite, cedar, and cocoa in balanced form. Taste and textureDark ruby color. Ripe black and red fruit, violet, sweet spice, and a touch of cocoa. Fine-grained tannins and a cool mineral finish give length and composure.
