The Tement family has farmed grapes and made wine in their region for three generations, but the winery was only officially born in 2009. Brothers Stefan and enology school-trained Armin make wine solely from Sauvignon Blanc that grows on their steep mountainside vineyard, which yields versions of this popular variety that are unlike those from anywhere else in the world. Limestone and clay soil give the wine a weighty, yet focused profile. Long fermentation with 12-36 hours of skin contact and a year in used barrel give the wine additional texture. Aromas skew more flinty and minty than the more typical citrus-forward personality of most Sauvignon Blanc.

Pairing: Goat Cheese Ravioli with Mint and Basil Pesto
