Sauv Blanc Blend, Rottensteiner 'Kitz'

Sauvignon Blanc/Pinot Blanc/Pinot Gris/Chardonnay

Kitz is a young, drinkable white cuvée produced by the Rottensteiner south tyrol winery, inspired by the German word for the ibex puppy, according to the heraldic iconography of the estate. A wine with fruity aromas and a soft taste, born to be enjoyed pleasantly in company, for an aperitif or dinner.

Founded in 1956, Hans’ focus was selling open wines from the winery to Switzerland. In the 1980’s, his son Toni changed over to marketing bottled wines, and since 2001 he has been supported by his grandson Hannes. Not only have the grapes from the family’s 10 hectares been processed from the onset, but also that of 50 regional grape growers as well. This close cooperation has extended for generations and is essentially responsible for the excellent quality of the wines.
