Cantina Andriano was founded in 1893. Alto Adige is one of Italy's smallest wine-growing areas. Located as it is at the interface between the Alpine north and the Mediterranean south, it is also one of its most diverse. Countless generations have shaped Alto Adige as a land of wine, where vines grow on various types of soil and in a range of climate zones at between 200 and 1,000 meters above sea-level. It is the home of authentic wines with a character of their own, with a focus on white wines.
The grapes are fermented at controlled temperatures in steel vats to maintain the wine's freshness, before maturing on it's fine lees for 6 months to add body and texture to the wine. The wine is full of ripe honeydew melons, pear and citrus; soft and full on the palate with a balanced long finish.
