The wine

From the vineyards of Merano, in the far north of Alto Adige, comes a Sauvignon that has been awarded the best revelation in the world for this variety in 2020 at the Concours Mondial du Sauvignon held annually in Touraine. It’s given to us by the small and innovative Plonerhof winery, oriented towards biological and the heroic viticulture in the northernmost part of Alto Adige, towards Austria. An alpine climate but protected, actually, kissed by the warm southern winds, and fascinating, intriguing, impeccable wines.

Exclusiv is certainly, by Italian standards, a champion of sauvignon. Straw-coloured, the bouquet is excited by clean and refined fragrances of grapefruit, tropical fruits and elderberry. An unconventional aromaticity, therefore, that moves away from the stereotype of the vegetable sauvignon to embrace a mineral and evolved style reminiscent of the elder French brothers.

Also, it is vinified and aged exclusively in large barrels, so as to receive a more complex but not distorted aromatic structure, a rounder body but still of great drinkability and remarkable predisposition to ageing. In fact, it also proves to be excellent as an aperitif, but naturally it gives its best with Mediterranean first courses or with vegetables, up to white meats and medium-aged cheeses.
