The 2018 Historic Vintage Riesling Valle Isarco by Villscheider is a still white DOC wine from Alto Adige, one of the most renowned Italian regions for the cultivation of quality aromatic grapes. This Riesling is produced from south-facing vineyards located at 700 metres above sea level on morainic-schist soils, characterised by permeability that favours the balanced ripening of the grapes. The manual harvest in boxes, with selection in the vineyard in early October, ensures a careful selection of the bunches, while the vinification in steel for 7 months enhances the freshness and purity of the fruit.
