Traminer Aromatico

D.O.C. (Controlled Designation of Origin) Friuli Colli Orientali

Better known as Gewürztraminer, experts are divided as to its origins. There are two most accredited hypotheses: Alsace or South Tyrol. The predilection of this variety is certainly for high latitude cultivation areas, meaning cold and cool areas. In Italy, the regions in which the grape is mostly cultivated are Trentino Alto Adige and Friuli Venezia Giulia, where the Traminer has perfectly adapted to the soil, climate and exposure, with excellent results.

Vinification

The harvested grapes are delicately de-stemmed. Soft pressing follows and the must thus obtained is clarified by decanting.The vinification continues with the alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature (18-20° C) in stainless steel containers.After fermentation, the wine is aged for 3-4 months in stainless steel tanks, taking particular care in the preservation and evolution of the "fine lees", with frequent bâtonnage (stirring).

Description

Straw yellow coloured wine, it is characterised by a scent reminiscent of roses, linden flowers, blackcurrant leaf, artemisia, in perfect melange. The taste is dry, intense, full and robust.

Serving suggestion

It goes very well with elaborate hot and cold appetizers, with seafood, fish in sauce and spicy cheeses.
