Qualigeo lists Alto Adige Schiava among the usual partners of Stilfser. These run from light to medium body, with almond, red fruit or violet and low to medium tannin, so the cheese's spicy aroma and intense flavour stay in front.
Vinschger has an intense, complex flavour and a long, strong finish (Mila). A dry Alto Adige Riesling with a mineral edge and high acidity cuts through the melting paste and resets the palate.
Mila describes a nutty, spicy aroma with fine honey notes that develops on the palate. A dry, full-bodied Alto Adige Gewürztraminer brings aromatic weight to match that intensity, with medium acidity to keep the pairing fresh.
Address: Hauptort 53, 39030 Mühlwald (BZ), Alto Adige
