Müller Thurgau grapes are cultivated with a Guyot method at variable altitudes ranging between 500 and 800 meters above sea level. The soil is a mix of clay and porphyry and the vineyards are exposed to the south and southwest.
Sofi Müller Thurgau
The Müller Thurgau is of a lively straw yellow color, with aromas reminiscent of Muscat notes, fresh fruit, peaches and flowers (yellow primrose), ending on an elegant and full-bodied taste with a very pleasant savory finish. With compelling simplicity and fresh acidity, the wine already seduces even while young.

Winemaking
After a short maceration to help extract aromas, the crushed, previously destemmed grapes are gently pressed. Then the must is fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks and left to refine there for about five months before another brief period in the bottle.
Food Pairing
The wine can be served as an aperitif or as a simple combination of Mediterranean light meals, fish salads and fresh goat cheese.
“For me wine means conviviality and pleasure. It makes me incredibly happy to think of opening a bottle of wine made by my father and bearing my name.”
The name and label for these wines were ready quite some time ago. At preschool age our daughter Sofia already expressed the wish to have a wine named after her, provided with a label designed by her.
Everything needs its time! Meanwhile Sofia grew up and together with her we could meet the demands of a young taste.
The Sofi wines consist in Müller Thurgau, Schiava and in a Rosso. The fresh taste of these wines is the expression of typicity and terroir.
