WINE TALK

Tried this w/ Susan & Roman on Thanksgiving:

  1. Kellerei Cantina Kaltern GWT Companer DOC: Sudtirol/AltoAdige (15%; www.KellereiKaltern.com; EnotecImprts/Denver) Caldaro 2015: Light gold color; strong GWT/lychee/bit hair oil some spicy quite fragrant slight earthy/stony nose; fairly tart bit austere fairly dry (0.5% r.s.?) strong GWT/lychee bit stony slightly bitter flavor; very long fairly strong lychee/GWT/slight hair oil fairly dry bit tart/austere bit bitter somewhat rich finish; quite a good GWT but a bit on the bitter side.$29.00 (SFW&S)

A wee BloodyPulpit:

  1. Anymore, when I want a good GWT w/ my weiners & kraut, the SudTirol is generally my go-to source. Alsace, since Z-H, is generally my last choice. This was a good/solid GWT, but not one of the best.
    The Kaltern Coop is a pretty good source of solid/reasonably-priced Sudtirol whites.

All the Kaltern wines I’ve had have been reds like Lagrein and Schiava. Never had a white. Will have to try this.
