Produced with red grapes in different percentages, among which we find Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Nero, this rosé wine from the Kaltern winery has as its place of origin the wine-growing city of Caldaro, in Alto-Adige: the history of the Kaltern Winery dates back to the beginnings of the twentieth century and today it has 450 hectares of vineyards. It is a cooperative of 650 winegrowers, united both by the love for their cultural roots and in particular for Caldaro, and by the passion for wine. From cultivation to refinement, the principles of organic viticulture are scrupulously followed, avoiding the use of herbicides and working with the utmost respect for nature. The harvest takes place by hand, from the beginning of September to the end of October; the must that is obtained is fermented in steel, at a low temperature with partial malolactic fermentation and a long aging on the yeasts.
