Michei Riserva 823

The history of wine cellars is often the story of a family and its ability to enhance tradition and innovation, in a combination that has stood the test of time. And so it was that in Termeno, a municipality in Alto Adige, in Maria Hofstӓtter's "Swarzer Adler" (Black Eagle) inn, an ancient imperial-royal postal station from the 16th century. where her husband Josef originally produced his first wines, her great-grandson Martin Foradori Hofstӓtter founded the current winery which has owed its great success to her intuitions since the 1990s. The heritage of knowledge of an ancient family of winemakers, the excellent vineyards of the eastern side of Alto Adige, the respect for traditions combined with the virtuous use of technology, are the keystone that has allowed this winery to produce wines excellent in perfect South Tyrolean style. Among the appreciable intuitions of Martin Foradori Hofstӓtter, the construction in 1997 of the avant-garde "wine tower" entirely made of wood which responded to the need to expand the cellar spaces in height rather than in extension, in a very limited area. Or the revolutionary conical-shaped concrete barrels with low energy impact for the fermentation of grapes, installed in 2013 and an absolute novelty for Alto Adige.

Michei Riserva 823 Trento Doc Brut is a classic method of extraordinary complexity, obtained from patient refinement on the lees for 60 months. This long period of rest in the bottle gives the sparkling wine a bright straw yellow color with a very fine and persistent perlage, which is expressed in an elegant play of bubbles. On the nose, a broad and complex bouquet opens up, characterized by intense notes of white-fleshed fruit, such as apple and pear, enriched by citrus nuances of citron and grapefruit. On the palate, the structure is balanced and creamy, with a long and persistent finish that leaves pleasant sensations of bread crust and yeast. The lively acidity and minerality typical of the Trentino terroir give the wine freshness and longevity.
