  • The etymology of this variety’s name, which translates to “forward,” likely hints at its propensity for early ripening, setting the stage for an exciting harvest season.
  • A favored choice for ice wine blends, this grape variety often constitutes a significant portion, contributing up to 60% of the grapes harvested at a frosty -6°C. This cold-climate harvesting method intensifies the grape’s natural sugars, resulting in a lusciously sweet and concentrated wine.
  • Beyond its role in ice wine production, this variety serves as a pivotal ingredient in the creation of a prestigious eau-de-vie known as Eigovitto. This refined spirit, distilled from the essence of the grapes, encapsulates the essence of the vineyard’s terroir, offering a transcendent sensory experience with each sip.
