TERROIR OF THE VIGNA CASTEL RINGBERG

The altitude of the vineyard, located between 330 and 400 meters above sea level, creates an optimal microclimate for the production of wines with a distinctive character. The mild climate of Lake Caldaro is complemented by the cool night breezes and the strong southern afternoon wind "Ora," which brings dry air to the vineyard. The extreme care taken in tending the vineyard, with a strong respect for nature, and the deliberately low yields contribute to making the "Castel Ringberg" vineyard a cradle of exceptional wines.

WINE CRITIC

A vivid white framed by racy acidity, which is well-meshed with flavors of yellow melon, tangerine and passion fruit. Reveals accents of tarragon, lemon curd, star anise and a rich hint of pastry cream, providing depth and complexity, while the tangy acidity returns with a clean-cut snap on the minerally finish.
Wine Spectator
