About this wine

Grapes

100% Traminer Aromatico (Gewürztraminer), harvested in the first week of September.

Vinification

The grapes are destemmed and pressed immediately. The must rests overnight and clarifies spontaneously in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. It is racked the following day and ferments for 15 days at controlled temperature.

Ageing

Approximately six months on fine lees precede bottling.

Tasting profile

Intense golden yellow. The powerful bouquet combines iris, rose and tropical fruit. The palate is full and expressive, with acidity and savoury character; fresh fruit and aromatic herbs return on the finish.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 12°C. Suitable as an aperitif or with fish-based starters and shellfish. It can also accompany inventive spicy recipes, herb frittatas and Asian dishes.

Label / history

Its pronounced aromatic character makes Traminer Aromatico immediately recognizable. The label’s synaesthetic image is the Bora: a dancer suspended in the wind while clinging to a rope.
