Gewürztraminer

Our Gewürztraminer, with its typical dry Alto Adige charm and personality, gleams in intense straw yellow with hints of gold reflections. Classic Gewürztraminer notes are mirrored in the bouquet – intensively aromatic notes of rose petals, flowers and spices. The wine presents itself rich in finesse on the palate, with fresh fullness, harmonic elegance and a long finish.

TERROIR

From the home of Gewürztraminer with its loose soils, characterized by a high proportion of limestone, but also deep veins of sand and porphyritic rock. Warm sites with good sunshine, accompanied by cool mountain air in the evenings, produce Gewürztraminer wines of great character and elegance. Elena Walch’s broad portfolio of terroirs span the best aspects of Alto Adige winegrowing. The vineyards are blessed with a combination of Mediterranean warmth and cool winds from the surrounding Dolomites, creating unique and desirable tension in the wines.

VINIFICATION

Before processing, a 6 hours maceration on the skins takes place. The grapes are carefully pressed and the must undergoes static clarification and is then fermented in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18°C. The wine ages for several months on its lees in stainless steel containers.

FOOD RECOMMENDATION

As a full-flavoured aperitif and as an accompaniment to a range of dishes, including savoury first courses and grilled fish.
