Franz Gojer’s St. Magdalener Rondell 2025 comes from the producer’s prized Rondell cru, considered one of his best parcels of Schiava in the St. Magdalener zone. This is a more serious and structured expression of Schiava, while still preserving the elegance, lift, and freshness that make Alto Adige reds so distinctive.

Sourced from older vines planted on a terraced, east-facing slope, this bottling shows more depth and complexity than a lighter everyday Schiava. It offers the grape’s classic charm — red berries, delicate florals, and bright freshness — with added savory, earthy notes and a touch of mild tannin.

Expect flavors of wild cherry, raspberry, red currant, dried flowers, alpine herbs, earth, and subtle spice. The wine is graceful and medium-light in body, with freshness, mineral tension, and enough structure to pair beautifully with food.

Food Pairing Suggestions:
Excellent with speck, prosciutto, roasted chicken, pork, veal, grilled sausages, mushroom dishes, alpine cheeses, pizza, pasta with tomato or mushroom sauce, and lighter red meat dishes. It also works very well slightly chilled with charcuterie boards and casual summer meals.

Style: Elegant, fresh, savory, mineral-driven
Best Served: Slightly chilled, around 55–58°F
