Tasting notes
Alois Lageder crafts wines in the stunning Alto Adige region of northern Italy, where the unique climate and terrain give rise to something truly special. Their "Am Sand" is particularly celebrated for its refined freshness and depth, captivating many wine lovers.
In the 16th volume of 'Drops of God,' Shizuku and Laurent choose this wine to pair with cheese fondue. They highlight its sweet aroma contrasting with a sharp, dry palate—an intriguing balance that enhances the wine's depth and complements the dish beautifully.
When you tilt the glass, it shows a golden hue with a hint of maturity. The aroma greets you with the crispness of green apple and the subtle softness of white flowers, with a mineral quality that feels like a breeze from a high-altitude vineyard. It’s an inviting and complex nose.
On the palate, it's crisp with lively acidity that’s truly refreshing. The strong minerality expands in your mouth, and the finish is long, leaving a fresh and elegant impression that keeps you reaching for another sip.
