Made from Gewurztraminer grapes and fermented in steel, it stands out for its intense and fragrant bouquet, characterised by notes of lychee, rose water, exotic fruit and Mediterranean spices. On the palate, it is full and smooth, proving to be \u003cstrong\u003esurprisingly dry\u003c\/strong\u003e and well balanced by a pronounced freshness. The enveloping sip finishes with a persistent finale and a delicate almond aftertaste.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe roots of this wine lie in the finest plots located between Oltradige and Bassa Atesina. The vineyards stretch across sunny slopes and flat areas, characterised by \u003cstrong\u003ewarm and light soils\u003c\/strong\u003e of volcanic and calcareous origin. In this particular part of Alto Adige, the vines benefit from an \u003cstrong\u003eAlpine-Mediterranean climate\u003c\/strong\u003e. Mild southern currents favour regular ripening of the grapes, while the mountain barriers offer protection from cold northern winds. This valuable \u003cstrong\u003eterritorial combination\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the wine a marked gustatory tension and a profound adherence to its area of origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare in the vineyard is reflected in a rigorous \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, with the grapes transported in small containers to preserve the perfect integrity of the bunches. In the cellar, the process begins with a brief skin maceration followed by gentle whole-bunch pressing. The must is clarified by natural decantation, preceding a \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e in steel tanks. To maintain the primary liveliness of the fruit and protect the aromas from oxidation, the wine rests for a \u003cstrong\u003esix-month maturation on fine lees\u003c\/strong\u003e, carried out exclusively in steel and without malolactic fermentation. The meticulous processing makes the product suitable even for those following a vegan diet.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gewürztraminer Aimé celebrates the excellence of \u003cstrong\u003eCantina Girlan\u003c\/strong\u003e, founded in 1923 from the passion of 23 winegrowers.
