These are just some of the many reasons that every year convince many visitors to decide to spend their holidays in Alto Adige - Südtirol. " It is an increasingly popular and popular destination for those who want to find an ideal place to recover their energy in the summer and it is even more so this year: the long lockdown has increased the desire to regenerate themselves among the splendid views that the mountains alpine know how to give " explains Andrea Moser , oenologist of Erste Neue, a historic winery based in Caldaro, a stone's throw from the famous lake of the same name. " We are lucky enough to work in one of the most beautiful wine villages in the world, immersed in an extraordinary landscape, where the reflections of the waters of Lake Caldaro, the orchards and of course the vineyards merge as far as the eye can see. from the Mendola coast they reach the foot of the Dolomites ".
Erste Neue wines always reflect the deep bond that unites the vineyards from which they are born to the mountains that watch around them, creating a union that is then reflected in the aromas and flavors present in the glass. And this is also what happens with the last two new wines that have further enriched the range of Erste Neue: the Cuvée White Peak and the Rosé Black Peak . " Our Basic line is the latest born and perfectly interprets the philosophy of our cellar and its claim " Wines for your #PEAKMOMENTS "continues Andrea Moser." They are wines of great freshness and pleasantness, which perfectly accompany the serene moments of leisure and relaxation that many spend in this period in the middle of our mountains ".
Both wines are a tribute to two mountains, the destination of many enthusiasts and which are part of the splendid view that can be observed from Caldaro. The Cuvée White Peak, a blend of Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Sauvignon, is dedicated to the White Horn, which captivates the eye in every season thanks to its light Dolomite rock. Rosé Black Peak, which combines Cabernet, Merlot and Pinot Noir, is instead a tribute to its twin, Corno Nero, fascinating with its red-gray color due to the presence of quartz porphyry. " They are two perfect wines for the summer" comments the winemaker from Erte Neue. " Fruity and aromatic, Cuvé and White Peak is light and fresh like the breezes of the Dolomites and perfect for an aperitif with friends. Ros é Black Peak is ideal with a platter of speck, but also with fish dishes, for example the trout, which populates the waterways of our area ".
Balance, freshness and an always captivating aromatic profile are characteristics that distinguish the production philosophy of all Erste Neue wines starting from the Puntay line, which represents the excellence of the cellar, with the presence of wines that combine the alpine spirit and the organoleptic excellence of the individual vines, grown in the best plots of the members of the wine cooperative. Finally, authenticity and dynamism are not lacking in the wines of the Classic Line, which make versatility at the table their winning weapon: a rich range of typical Alto-Adige vines that combine with many culinary preparations.
