Kellerei Kaltern - Sauvignon Quintessenz 2019

Verlies je zintuigen in een labyrint van geuren en vind ze terug dankzij de draad van mineraliteit die je naar je smaakdoel leidt.

Robert Parker : 93

' This wine opens to passion fruit and green papaya, followed by sharper tones of dried ginger and a dusting of powdered licorice root. The Cantina Kaltern 2019 Alto Adige Sauvignon Quintessenz offers a richer and more elongated texture compared to your classic expression of Sauvignon Blanc, yet its aromas remain intact, zippy and fresh. There is a hint of extra ripeness to those flavors that underlines the more tropical or exotic side of the grape in this release of 12,000 bottles. '

James Suckling : 94

' Fascinating nose to this, offering fresh hazelnut and savory, fresh fenugreek-like aromas, suffused into cooked lemons and limes. Medium-to full-bodied with the same, multifaceted character to the flavorful palate. Well-placed acidity drives the delicious fruit on and on, until more minerally, phenolic notes take hold right at the end. This is top class this year! 14% alcohol, but you don’t feel that. Delicious now. Alternatively, hold a while and see.  '
