Description

The Sauvignon Blanc vines are grown at a height between 400 and 800 meters above sea level. The soil is originated from the erosion of the Dolomites. A portion of the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks and a part in barrique, then it all ages in the same containers for about eight months in contact with the fine yeast. Pale straw yellow color with greenish hues. The nose is seduced with a colorful bouquet of aromas, including elderflowers, white peaches, complex notes pinned with dried fruits and Asian aromas. On the palate, it releases a lively and sapid acidity with mineral notes, while the ending notes are very persistent and stimulating and characterized by a pleasant fullness and elegance.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 12-14 °C with tuna tartare, veal with tuna sauce, white meat and slightly spicy Asian dishes.

About brand

Franz Haas Winery – a synonym for elegance and heights since 1880.

Franz Haas is a historic Italian winery from the Alto Adige region, founded in 1880. Today, the winery is run by the seventh generation of the family, continuing long-standing traditions and creating wines that are famous not only for their quality but also for their unique style.

The family philosophy is to combine terroir authenticity, innovation and art in order to create wines that reflect the character of the mountains and the uniqueness of Alto Adige.

One of the main distinctive features of the Franz Haas winery is the vineyards planted from 240 to even 1,150 meters above sea level. Such altitudes are rare in Italy, but they allow the cultivation of grapes that produce:

Long-lasting wines with firm acidity

Wines with bright aromatic profiles

Mineral, elegant red and white wines

These conditions allow the creation of wines that retain their freshness even after many years of aging.

Soil diversity – a natural guarantee of complexity

Franz Haas vineyards stretch across different soils: from sand and gravel to fine clay and calcium-rich soil. This diversity allows winemakers to play with texture, structure and aromas, obtaining a subtle character of wines that reflect the microclimate of each area.

Artistic identity – Riccardo Schweizer labels

Each Franz Haas wine has a unique label, created by the famous Italian artist Riccardo Schweizer, who has interacted and worked with legends such as Picasso, Chagall, Le Corbusier and others. It is not just a wine label, but a work of art that stands out on the shelf and conveys the spirit of the wine.
