The wine
Imagine a golden curtain opening on the stage of your mouth, revealing an opera of flavors and aromas. The Metodo Classico Brut Riserva 36 by Meran is a sparkling wine that captures the essence of the Italian Alps. Produced with a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir, this wine is a tribute to tradition and excellence. Its winemaking occurs through the "classical method," with a maturation of 36 months that gives it unparalleled complexity. At first glance, the wine presents itself with a greenish-yellow color, embellished by golden reflections. On the nose, it welcomes you with a bouquet of bread crust, pineapple, and a light yeast note. In the mouth, the harmony is irresistible, with a finesse that prolongs into an endless finish. Ideal for celebrating special moments or to accompany fish dishes and appetizers.
The winery
This cooperative, which was founded in 1901 with a few winegrowers, evolved in 2010 through the merger of two wineries: the Burggräfler winery and the Merano winery. Today it has over 360 members who support the renovation and expansion of the cellar. The objectives have always been: the production of high quality wines, which remain faithful to their roots, the care of the vineyards, the origin of the grapes and transparency. The passion of the winemakers for their work is the secret of their wines. The winery is located in a geographically advantageous area between the mountains and the lower Val Venosta, where a vast variety of grape varieties thrive and incredibly varied and exciting wines are produced. The members are located in two decidedly different wine areas: Merano and Val Venosta. The Merano area offers a sunny, fertile and mild hilly landscape with a Mediterranean charm, while the Val Venosta is characterized by an alpine climate, often extreme, with strong temperature variations between day and night and exceptionally steep vineyards with arid soils that reach 900 meters of height. The location, the land and the climatic conditions are examined with wisdom and scrupulousness in order to identify the optimal position for each individual vine. This is how an incredibly varied and exciting repertoire of wines is born thanks to the application of the most modern technologies together with the passion of hundreds of families who make quality their absolute priority every year.
