Petit Manseng Alto Adige is an Old World wine through and through, as this Italian wine exudes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underlines the success of wines from the Old World. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in small oak barrels at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by maturation for 10 months in oak barrels. The ageing in wooden barrels is followed by a long maturation in the bottle, which makes this white wine even more complex. Recommendation for the Petit Manseng Alto Adige from Franz Haas This Italian wine is best enjoyed moderately chilled at 11 - 13°C. It goes perfectly with lemon chili chicken with bulgur, potato pan with salmon or vegetable salad with beetroot. <p
