The Kerner variety is a cross between Schiava and Riesling , created in Weinsberg (Germany) in 1929. It's named in honour of the poet and physician Justinus Kerner. It prefers the light, gravelly and sandy soils of the higher altitude, sunny hillsides of the mid Valle Isarco. Despite their late ripening period, these grapes provide a highly acclaimed full-bodied and tasty wine.
Tasting note: Straw yellow with greenish hues. A fresh, intense, spiced aromas. Well-balanced acidity, aromatic, with a light muscat note, peach and apricot scents
