Frequently asked about Kofererhof Kerner
What does Kofererhof Kerner taste like?
Peach, spice and mineral aromatics from the three-picking technique - one picking for freshness, others for complexity. Full-bodied with high acidity.
When should I drink Kofererhof Kerner?
Drink between 3 and 10 years from vintage. The three-picking depth and altitude-driven acidity support a longer-than-typical Kerner ageing window.
What is the three-picking technique?
Kofererhof harvests the Kerner vineyard at three separate maturity points and blends the lots to combine freshness (early picking) with complexity (later pickings).
What food pairs with Kofererhof Kerner?
Schinkenfleckerl, veal escalope, roast pork and mild Asian curry. Kerner's aromatic structure handles both Alpine and Asian dishes.
