Gewürztraminer

This Gewürztraminer has been produced by the winery since its inception in the early 20th century. Today, the grapes are sourced from vineyards in Montagna and Termeno, the ancestral home of the Gewürztraminer grape. Vinified in stainless steel, malolactic fermentation is carried out to add richness and body to the wine.

Tasting Notes

A well structured wine, this Gewürztraminer displays minerality and an elegant and intense aroma of rose petals and lychee.

Food Pairing

Pair with seafood antipasti and white meat dishes.
