Super interesting Sauvignon Blanc, reminds me of old Chablis gold, white raisin, ozone, hazelnut and almond..

Quarz is in my mind one of the very top whites from Italy and the 2015 is an attractive one. Extreme complexity, sustains forever. I've had a few that have agreed amazingly well and I think this would do likewise.

Vintage 2010 - Powerfull wine. I served it with gamba’s in a spicy tomatosauce and the wine could have it. #altoadige #sauvignonblanc

One of the best Sauvignons. Showing some age, complexity and viscosity. Less aromatic than when young.

Not your typical picnic wine...a grassy & alpine Sauvignon from Alto Adige. Super minerally!

Iron, lavender, honey, sour green candy. Opened up into very textured wine with mineral undertone. Unraveled after a few hours as young wines of considerable potential are wont to do. Easily a 10 year wine with fascinating potential for bottle evolution.

Candied lemon, elderflower chamomile tea. Passion fruit. Good acidity.
