2022 Cantina Valle Isarco "Aristos" Sylvaner Alto Adige

Notes

The "Aristos" Sylvaner from Cantina Valle Isarco is a stunning example of the Sylvaner grape, cultivated in the cool, alpine region of Alto Adige. This cooperative winery is known for producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the region, and the Aristos label represents their top-tier bottlings. The Sylvaner thrives in these high-altitude vineyards, producing a crisp, mineral-driven white with remarkable elegance and freshness. On the nose, the "Aristos" Sylvaner offers enticing aromas of green apple, white peach, and citrus blossom, complemented by subtle notes of herbs, almond, and a touch of flinty minerality. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with bright acidity and a silky texture. Flavors of pear, lemon zest, and melon are balanced by a refreshing saline minerality, leading to a long, crisp finish with hints of herbal undertones and white flowers.
