Gewürztraminer "Floralis" Alto Adige DOC 2022

The vineyards in this case are located in Glaning, the 'cranberry village' in the heart of South Tyrol. We are located at approximately 760 metres above sea level, where the climate is quite extreme and where the Gewürztraminer grapes ripen perfectly thanks to a unique microclimate and soils predominantly composed of porphyry. Here, the plants have an average age of over 20 years and full ripening comes in the first half of September. Harvesting and grape selection are strictly manual and the grapes, brought to the cellar, are first gently crushed and then left to settle naturally. This is followed by a slow, temperature-controlled fermentation phase and six months of maturation on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks. Floralis, Alto Adige DOC presents itself in the glass with a beautiful, intense and brilliant golden yellow colour. On the nose, a typical and refined bouquet, with tropical and exotic notes of rose petals, lime, lychee and orange. In the mouth, the fruity aromas reappear, making the wine particularly pleasant. Dry, thanks to the classic vinification, complex, but also savoury and smooth at the same time. Perfect with sweet and sour Asian dishes or with grilled fish. It also goes well with blue cheeses or a delicate gorgonzola.
