Kerner Alto Adige Valle Isarco

Kerner is a white grape variety that is commonly grown in the Isarco Valley, in the South Tyrol. It is a crossing between Trollinger and Riesling, created in Germany back in the 1920s. Those grapes thrive in the cool climate and high-altitude vineyard, producing wines with vibrant acidity, floral aromas, and flavors of citrus, stone fruits and light hints of spices. Kerner wines are known for their crispness, minerality, and elegance. The unique terroir of the region, with its moraine soils composed of slate and granite, contributes to the distinctive character of Kerner wines produced in this area. Köfererhof focuses on obtaining high-quality Kerner wines that show the grape's potential and the terroir of the region. These wines are often enjoyed as aperitifs or paired with light dishes such as seafood, salads, or poultry.
