It stands out for its brilliant hue, ranging from yellow to golden, and for its clear aromatic profile, characterised by elegant notes of rose petals, honey and lychee. On the palate, it reveals a \u003cstrong\u003esignificant structure\u003c\/strong\u003e and a notably persistent finish. Its pronounced aromatic expression pairs beautifully with shellfish, grilled fish and the spicy dishes of \u003cstrong\u003eAsian cuisine\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from vineyards located in South Tyrol, cultivated using the Guyot system at an altitude between 260 and 400 metres. The optimal \u003cstrong\u003esouth and south-east exposure\u003c\/strong\u003e ensures full ripening of the bunches. The terroir is divided between the Niclara area, dominated by \u003cstrong\u003ecalcareous gravel from moraine sediments\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the Cortaccia area, where \u003cstrong\u003eclay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e prevail. This combination of territories, together with low yields per hectare, gives the wine great concentration and breadth of flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVinification begins with eight hours of \u003cstrong\u003eskin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e to extract the full aromatic spectrum of the variety. Fermentation and subsequent maturation last ten months: part takes place in \u003cstrong\u003econcrete vats\u003c\/strong\u003e in contact with fine lees and the other part in \u003cstrong\u003ewooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, thus balancing freshness and complexity. After the \u003cstrong\u003eblend\u003c\/strong\u003e, the wine rests for a further two months in concrete before finishing with a \u003cstrong\u003efinal ageing\u003c\/strong\u003e of five months. This process enhances the harmony between the natural residual sugar and the vibrant acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced by the historic winery \u003cstrong\u003eTiefenbrunner\u003c\/strong\u003e, founded in 1848, Turmhof Gewurztraminer embodies the true excellence of \u003cstrong\u003eAlto Adige DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e.
