Muri-Gries Sauvignon 2024 - 0,75l

Muri-Gries Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is a dry Alto Adige white with lemon, green apple and elderflower, plus fresh grass and a cool wet-gravel finish from Bolzano. This is the Muri-Gries white to open when you want Sauvignon Blanc with mountain brightness and a dry, mineral bite. The stainless-steel aging keeps the 2024 vintage clear and brisk.

About the Wine
The 2024 Muri-Gries Sauvignon Blanc comes from Alto Adige, the mountain-framed district around Bolzano where this Benedictine estate has long worked close to the city. The vines for this dry white stand on porphyry and limestone soils, and that mix is easy to read in the wine's wet-gravel line. Muri-Gries farms this Sauvignon Blanc under sustainable certification. In this 2024 bottling, Sauvignon Blanc leans into lemon peel, green apple and elderflower with a cool green edge. In the cellar, Muri-Gries raises the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc in stainless steel tanks. The choice leaves a clean edge on the citrus fruit, with elderflower set high in the aroma. The wine is dry, with 13.5% alcohol and a brisk shape that suits its green-fruited profile. The texture is sleek and direct from the first pour. The final impression brings chilled stone, cut apple and fresh grass across a narrow line.

Tasting Notes
On the nose, the 2024 Muri-Gries Sauvignon Blanc opens with lemon zest, crisp green apple and a small elderflower lift that stays cool and pale with a faint alpine-herb edge. The palate is dry and lively, with fresh grass and cut apple moving across a slim stainless-steel texture that feels very much like the tank-raised Muri-Gries style, and the texture stays sleek from the first sip. Wet gravel runs through the finish, giving the wine a mineral feel that is especially clear after the citrus fruit fades and the green apple note turns sharper near the back of the tongue. At 13.5% alcohol, it has enough body for fish or vegetables and remains brisk in the mouth, with a final snap of lemon peel and stone after a few minutes in the glass. Drink 2025-2027.

Food Pairing
Pour this Muri-Gries Sauvignon Blanc 2024 with grilled sea bass, lemon-dressed prawns and simple steamed mussels or a plate of oysters with lime. The wine's lemon and green apple notes make seafood taste sharper, and the wet-gravel finish brings out the briny side of shellfish and lightly salted fish skin. For an Alto Adige table, serve it with Schlutzkrapfen filled with spinach and ricotta, finished with brown butter and chives. A fennel and apple salad with herbs, cucumber and goat's cheese sits nicely beside the elderflower note, especially if the dressing is based on yoghurt or lemon. With vegetables, think asparagus with Parmesan or peas with mint; the grassy edge in the Sauvignon Blanc has enough bite for green flavors and enough dry tension for vinaigrette.

Producer
Muri-Gries is unusual in Alto Adige: the winery sits inside a working Benedictine abbey in the Gries quarter of Bolzano, where the abbey church and the cellar share the same address in the middle of the city. That setting gives the producer a very concrete identity: visitors step into a place of cloisters, old stone and active winemaking before they ever see a label or a tasting note. The estate is best known for Lagrein from Gries, and that grounded red-wine reputation gives useful context for the firm dry shape and quiet mineral line of this 2024 Sauvignon Blanc. Here the same house that handles Bolzano's dark Lagrein also bottles a Sauvignon Blanc with lemon peel, elderflower and wet gravel held in a stainless steel frame for a very direct reading of the 2024 vintage. Muri-Gries has a practical cellar language: clear fruit, measured alcohol and wines that show their site through texture as much as aroma, which suits this 13.5% dry white from porphyry and limestone soils. In this bottle the producer's signature is the combination of sustainable farming and tank-raised clarity; the last impression is wet gravel, cut apple and elderflower tied to the soils listed for this specific wine.
