This wine is made carefully selected Gewürztraminer grapes, which comes the area of St. Pauls called St. Justina. It has a delicate, aromatic and warm-spicy flavour which reminiscent of cinnamon, nutmeg, and rose petals. It is rich and round on the palate and is one of South Tyrol's best known wines.
A prominent mineral vein lends a lasting freshness to the almost oily body that is scented with roses, magnolias, and lychees.
Our Gewürztraminer is counted among the most popular wines in South Tyrol. It has a straw-yellow to golden hue, is an aromatic and full-bodied white wine with a light to somewhat stronger nose and pleasantly dry, lightly spicy character. In addition to spice, nuances of rose and lychee add to the bouquet.
Recommended: To grilled fish and meat, full-flavoured cheeses and cold platters of sliced meats, or on its own for social drinking.
