Description
Aromatic still white wine from Trentino-Alto Adige, 14% ABV, produced by Kettmeir, a historic winery since 1919. A Gewürztraminer that expresses the elegance and complexity of the varietal, a classic of Alto Adige. The grapes, harvested at optimal technological and aromatic ripeness, are vinified without the skins with brief maceration at low temperatures to optimize the extraction of aromas. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 15-16°C. Appropriate maturation on the lees follows. Intense and distinctive aromas of rose petals, tropical fruit, and notes of sweet spices. Straw yellow with bright highlights. On the palate, it is energetic and dynamic, with freshness and savory notes that ensure a long aromatic finish.

Tradition as a value to be handed down, and progress as a vision to be perpetuated. Innovators, but with the awareness that one must not abandon the heritage of tradition, preserved as a fundamental bond with the land and one's own history.
One example is the architecture of the Kettmeir winery, preserved intact since the Second World War as a precious testimony to its past. And it is in the historic wine cellar, where both the wines rest in barrels and the classic method sparkling wines on ancient pupitres, that part of Kettmeir's success is realised under the watchful eye of oenologist Josef Romen.
The other place is the vineyards, stretching from Kaltern to the Ebnicherhof to Salurn, where Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Moscato rosa and many other grape varieties grow, cultivated with absolute care, respecting all their varietal peculiarities. In every grape, the history of this land. In every drop, the know-how of its people. In every bubble, a way of being. Read more
