This grape variety of Germanic origin has found an ideal terroir in South Tyrol. Riesling needs special conditions and prefers a cool and sunny climate. These conditions can be found in the areas around Lake Monticolo and in neighbouring micro-areas, where the porphyry soils give the wine its special character. The Riesling Fallwind is distinguished by its fruity aromas and mineral freshness, which make it an increasingly popular wine.
