This is a story that has its roots back in 1142, when the Novacella Abbey, in German Kloster Neustift, was founded. Fires and peasant revolts have (almost) never stopped the spiritual, social and above all agricultural and wine-growing activities of this centre.
The vineyards of South Tyrol from which this Sylvaner is born are located in the Bressanone and Cornaiano basin, between 650 and 750 m above sea level. This position allows the grapes to evolve into an elegant and substantial wine thanks also to the contribution of low temperatures and soils with moraine, paragneiss and quartzite deposits.
