CONTESSA LENE - White Wine, Sauvignon Blanc Alto Adige DOC

Our Contessa Lene Sauvignon Blanc embodies our winemaking soul, rooted in Alto Adige. This high-quality product is the result of carefully hand-picked grapes from our vineyards clinging to the steep terrain in Terlano, the land of Sauvignon, at 400 metres above sea level. The sun and day-night temperature fluctuations help enhance its aromas and flavours.
