The crushed grapes are cold macerated for approximately 6 hours before light pressing. The must is clarified by natural sedimentation followed by temperature controlled fermentation at 20°C. This Gewürztraminer, with its typical dry Alto Adige charm and personality, gleams in intensive straw yellow. Classic Gewürztraminer notes are mirrored in the bouquet: intensively aromatic notes of rose petals, flowers and spices. The wine presents itself rich in finesse on the palate, with fresh fullness, harmonic elegance and a long finish. Contains sulphites. Produced by ELENA WALCH SRL - Via Andreas Hofer, 1 - 39040, Tramin/Termeno - Alto Adige - Italy.
The producer
Elena Walch is in charge of a company with vineyards that can be undoubtedly considered among the most beautiful in Alto Adige. The company is located in the former Jesuit monastery, owned by the Walch family since 1869, in Termeno (a small village 30 km from Bolzano). The town of Termeno is well known for its white wines, but especially for its Gewürztraminer (which is said to be born in this place). The estates of Elena Walch overlook Lake Caldaro and are divided into Castel Ringberg and Kastelaz. Their beautiful location is a major contributor to the high quality of the wines produced here.
