K.Martini & Sohn, Paladium Gewürztraminer 2019 | Alto Adige DOC

A highly expressive white wine with flavours of passion fruit, pineapple, mango and caramel. Made by an award-winning Swiss-Italian winemaker in Alpine vineyards of Alto Adige

Gewürztraminer is a highly aromatic grape used to produce beautifully fragrant wines. This excellent example was awarded a remarkable “two glasses” from Gambero Rosso, and three stars from I Vini di Veronelli. The grapes for this wine were harvested by hand in a family vineyard in the foothills of the Alps. The juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature to conserve the delicate aromas. The wine has a very expressive flavour, enlivened by high levels of acidity, and will definitely benefit from ageing and development in the bottle.

Tasting notes: Pale lemon colour. On the nose, it has pronounced fragrant aromas of passion fruit, pineapple, mango, melon and pear, with hints of biscuit and sweet caramel. The wine is dry, with high acidity and an expressive intensity of flavours that balances its high level of alcohol. A very long and pleasant finish in the mouth with lingering fruity flavours.

Ageing potential: 5 years

Awards: Gambero Rosso 2020 – 2 red glasses (final tasting) | I vini di Veronelli 2020 – 3 stars (90 points) | Vinibuoni d´Italia 2019 – 3 stars
