ST. MICHELE APPIANO FALLWIND RIESLING 750ML x6 Bundle

St. Michele Appiano (St. Michael-Eppan) Fallwind Riesling is a highly versatile, dry, and aromatic white wine from Alto Adige, Italy, recognized for its vibrant acidity and intense notes. This grape variety of Germanic origin has found an ideal terroir in South Tyrol. Riesling needs special conditions and prefers a cool and sunny climate. These conditions can be found in the areas around Lake Monticolo and in neighbouring micro-areas, where the porphyry soils give the wine its special character. Fermentation in stainless-steel tanks, followed by development on the lees for another five months.
The evening downdrafts of the Mendola Massif give the entire terroir of the St. Michael-Eppan winery their character: they ensure the cool nights that give the grapes their extraordinary properties, shaping the fragrance, the unmistakable freshness and longevity of the wines. The downdraft (= “FALLWIND”) is the natural element that blows over the vineyards every day, exerting a positive influence on the climate and supporting the valuable work of the winegrowers.

Nose: Perfumed, delicate, and complex. Primary aromas include peach, apricot, grapefruit, citron, lemon peel, and white flowers (orange blossom).

Taste: Very fresh and lively due to high, precise acidity. It is mineral-forward with a light-to-medium body, balancing fruitiness with a strong, savory, and refined structure.

Pairing: This Riesling pairs exceptionally well with Asian cuisine, sushi, grilled fish, vegetarian dishes, and goat cheeses.
