Gewürztraminer Südtirol DOC 2021

Konrad Oberhofer's winery produces this Gewürztraminer that best represents the characteristics of the grape variety. A wine suitable for ageing, capable of evolving while refining its bouquet to the full. Once the grapes have reached full ripeness, they are harvested and brought quickly to the cellar to prevent spontaneous fermentation processes from starting. Here they are lightly crushed and the must is left in contact with the skins for a few hours. This is followed by careful pressing and the natural precipitation of the sediment. Then comes the fermentation phase, at a controlled temperature, to enhance the unique organoleptic characteristics of this wine. Straw yellow in colour, it has good concentration and a pronounced aromatic vein, with spicy-smoky notes of dried flowers and roses that tend to expand and enhance in the glass. In the mouth, it is dense and rich, with a nice body, remarkable freshness and vivacity. Perfect as an aperitif, it accompanies hors d'oeuvres, Asian cuisine and shellfish. For an unconventional pairing, you could also try it with fresh Gorgonzola.
