Meranese Schiava South Tyrol Alto Adige
A.A. Meranese Schiava DOC "Schickenburg" 2023
Indigenous and deeply rooted: the Merano Schiava has been grown around Merano for centuries as the area provides the very best growing conditions for it. Nevertheless, only a few grapes from old, selected vines make it into the zesty “Schickenburg”.
Authentic, angular, yet elegant: a real Merano native.
