The Neustift Abbey (Abbazia di Novacella) was founded in Brixen in 1142, making it one of the oldest continually operating wineries in the world. Although the grape originated a few hundred miles to the north in Germany, Kerner thrives in the alpine region of Alto-Adige near the Austrian border. As a crossing of Trollinger (Schiava) and Riesling, Kerner exhibits loads of aromatic goodness while remaining crisp and dry with notes of apples, flowers, mountain herbs, and citrus. Pair with gnocchi in cream sauces, German sausages, schnitzels, and potato dishes.
