"Bright red. Spicy herbal red berries and flinty red cherry on the nose. Then brisk and easygoing in the mouth, with smooth flavors and a hint of peppery bite on the long back end. Not the last word in complexity but juicy and full of early appeal. Try the 2017 Kalterersee Classico Superiore Quintessenz lightly chilled." Ian D'Agata

The harvest began very early in 2017, at the end of August, following an extremely dry summer. However, the pergola training system and balancing influence of Lake Caldaro made it possible to pick an extremely sound Schiava. This is a cunning wine, bright ruby in colour with a fresh violet scent and pomegranate flavour. It's lean and taut in structure yet has a non-intrusive acidity, making this extraordinarily attractive for drinking now.
