Konrad Oberhofer. Piazza Municipio, 7, 39040 Termeno (BZ)
Konrad Oberhofer's is an elegant Pinot Noir that impresses with its smoothness, fragrance and fruity character. The grapes in this case come from vineyards characterised by composite soils of clay, limestone and porphyry. Ideal soil for the cultivation of this grape variety, known for its capricious character. After harvesting, the grapes are separated from the stalks, but only 75%. The remaining 25% is sent to the winemaking process intact. Fermentation lasts about 10 days, and during this time the must remains in direct contact with the skins. Bright ruby red in colour with garnet hues, it has fresh, exuberant and captivating aromas of small berries and cherries. A harmonious and well-balanced wine, it is free of sharp edges, rich in flavour and fine on the palate. It goes well with white meat dishes, roasts, first courses with meat sauces.
Konrad Oberhofer was a winegrower with a pioneering approach. Recognising the potential of his vineyards, he began to vinify the grapes of the individual estates separately, thus increasing the quality of his wines. This modern vision soon led him to abandon the sale of bulk wine, opting for marketing in bottles. Today, with the same perseverance and passion as then, Martin Foradori has picked up his grandfather Konrad's baton, selecting and vinifying grapes from the prized vineyards of Alto Adige, in order to carry on the historic tradition of his family and its world-renowned wines. Whereas in the past it was the Schiava, a local native grape variety, that monopolised the market, today it is the other varieties such as Lagrein, also native, and the noble Pinot Noir. With them Gewürztraminer, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon and Müller Thurgau.
