Tradition and passion, Terlano winery with its selection of white and red wines, best represents the characteristics of the territory. L'Alto Adige Nova Domus consists of 70% Pinot Bianco, 25% Chardonnay and 5% Sauvignon Blanc grapes that are harvested and selected manulamente, and then carry out a gentle pressing in whole bunch and sfecciatura by natural sedimentation. Then follows a slow fermentation at controlled temperature in large oak barrels and a partial malolactic fermentation only for Pinot Blanc and Sauvignon grapes, with aging for 12 months on fine lees in traditional wooden barrels. Blending three months before bottling. This classic Terlaner reflects all the advantages of its production area and is presented as a vigorous wine, rich in facets and enriched with mineral notes. It fully expresses its potential only after many years of aging in bottle. Nova Domus is presented to the glass with a fresh light yellow color with light greenish nuances. The aromatic structure of this Terlaner blend is rich in facets. A veil of herbs and spices, such as anise, mint and sage, but also fruity aromatic nuances, especially apricot, Mandarin, melon and maracuja. All enriched with mineral and salty notes. The effect of the Nova Domus on the palate is complex and structured, with a creamy and soft taste that contrasts with the aromatic and mineral notes, giving rise to a captivating symbiosis that lasts a long time in the aftertaste. It goes well with caviar, a slice of grilled salmon or roast tuna, but also a Florentine, saltimbocca alla romana or braised veal shank, eggplant parmesan or truffle fondue. To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a serving temperature of 12/14 ºC.
