Caldaro Cabernet Sauvignon Riserva Campaner 2023

Kaltern Caldaro’s 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Riserva Campaner is a structured Alto Adige red that pairs ripe dark fruit with polished, well-defined tannins. Made from Cabernet Sauvignon grown on the steep slopes around Caldaro, it reflects the region’s distinctive Alpine-Mediterranean character and the long-standing winemaking tradition of Kellerei Kaltern, founded in 1900.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red in the glass, it opens with aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant and cherry, layered with hints of chocolate and pink pepper. The palate is full and composed, with ripe fruit balanced by firm, well-defined tannins and a long, persistent finish. With a suggested cellaring potential of five to ten years, the wine should develop further complexity over time when stored in suitable conditions.

Production
The grapes come from steep, south-facing vineyards in Caldaro, at elevations of around 250–350 metres. The Mediterranean-influenced climate supports steady ripening, while calcareous clay and gravel soils provide good drainage and retain warmth. The wine is fermented with skin contact and macerated for two weeks to extract colour and structure; after malolactic fermentation, it matures for 12–16 months in barriques and larger wooden casks. It is lightly filtered before bottling. Harvesting details are not specified.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C, ideally after giving the wine about an hour to breathe in a decanter. Its dark-fruit character and firm structure make it a natural match for grilled or roasted red meat, braised dishes and mature cheeses.

Kellerei Kaltern, also known as Kaltern Caldaro, was founded in 1900 and is closely associated with the winegrowing community around Lake Caldaro in Alto Adige.
