This Feldmarschall von Fenner Müller Thurgau Vigna from Tiefenbrunner Winery comes from the single vineyard Hofstatt on Unterfennberg in the municipality of Magrè. The vines grow at 1,000 meters above sea level on red, heterogeneous glacial moraine rock with marble, porphyry and granite boulders as well as Dolomite and limestone rock in the deeper layers.
In the glass, it appears pale straw yellow with greenish reflections. On the nose, it is intensely fragrant with white blossoms and yellow fruits, peach and apricot, accompanied by mineral-spicy accents. The exposed high-altitude site requires two to four selective harvest passes. After a short period of skin contact, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented half in large oak casks and half in concrete tanks without the addition of selected yeasts. The wine then matures for almost one year on the fine lees and a further six months in the bottle. On the palate, it is finely structured, juicy and elegantly balanced, with fresh acidity and a long finish.
