Castel Juval Pinot Bianco Himmelsleiter 2021
The name Himmelsleiter (ladder to heaven) reflects the beauty of this location with views as far as the mountains of Merano.
The grapes
for this prestigious wine come from vineyards between 750 and 780 metres above sea level, planted in 1992 and 1994.
The temperature fluctuations there are pronounced and the reason for the formation of fine, fruity flavours.
In the cellar
we let the destemmed grapes rest in the press for a few hours, depending on the vintage, in order to extract minerals, natural flavours and tannins. After pressing, the young wine ferments at a controlled temperature in acacia wood barrels, where it matures on its own yeast until shortly before bottling.
The wine
is characterised by a fresh and versatile aroma of pear and apple with a hint of green lemon. It is mineral and persistent on the palate. We recommend it with asparagus, strong starters, white meat and fish dishes.
