Origin

The „Kristplonerhof” estate is situated in Guncina on the slopes of the Tschögglberg mountain, with a South-East exposure and loose porphyry soil. Evi, the oldest daughter of our family, inherited the place of birth of Toni’s wife Rosa.

Vinification

After fermentation at 25°C, the wine matures in stainless steel tanks.

Description

The “Kristplonerhof” is an easy to drink and fruity wine, with notes of violets, cherries and bitter almond, yet with a very good structure. It is very versatile, combinable with starters and main dishes of any kind, from fish to beef. It is also a good companion in a sociable gathering, perhaps together with delicious Tyrolean cold cuts.
