Abbazia di Novacella, Alto Adige Valle Isarco Kerner, 2024
From the alpine vineyards of Trentino-Alto Adige in northern Italy, the Abbazia di Novacella Alto Adige Valle Isarco Kerner 2024 is a crisp, aromatic white wine crafted entirely from 100% Kerner grapes. This vintage showcases the unique character of the Valle Isarco, where cool mountain air and mineral-rich soils cultivate wines of elegance and precision. Bright yellow with greenish glints in the glass, its bouquet rises with notes of peaches, apricots, and fresh tangerine peel layered over a delicate floral perfume of orange blossoms and subtle alpine herbs.
On the palate, it opens dry and lively, zesty with juicy acidity that echoes the vibrant tones of blood orange granita and ripe tangerine. There’s a compelling tension between fruit and minerality, with a sleek texture and a mouthwatering finish seasoned by whispers of fresh tarragon and a saline edge. Its structure is light yet firm, making it as refreshing as it is expressive.
With 13.5% alcohol by volume, this wine is a perfect companion for delicate seafood dishes. Best served chilled, it pairs exceptionally well with sushi, sashimi, and shellfish, as well as white fish preparations and soft cheeses. For a regional twist, try it alongside smoked pike-perch or creamy polenta with chanterelles to bring out the Kerner’s savory dimension.
