Il Gewürztraminer Alto Adige DOC della cantina Colterenzio è un vino bianco che incarna l'espressione più autentica del terroir altoatesino. Questo vitigno aromatico, molto apprezzato per la sua complessità olfattiva, trova nella zona dell'Alto Adige un ambiente ideale per sviluppare le sue caratteristiche peculiari.

Al primo sguardo, il vino si presenta con un colore giallo paglierino intenso, quasi dorato. Al naso, esplode con un potpourri di profumi floreali e fruttati: rose, litchi, agrumi e una leggera nota di spezie, tipica del Gewürztraminer. Questa complessità olfattiva si rispecchia perfettamente in bocca, dove il vino si distingue per la sua struttura piena e avvolgente, con un equilibrio armonioso tra freschezza e morbidezza.

Le uve utilizzate per questo Gewürztraminer sono selezionate a mano e vinificate con grande attenzione per mantenere intatti i profumi e i sapori tipici del vitigno. La fermentazione a temperatura controllata e un affinamento sui lieviti contribuiscono a conferire maggiore profondità e persistenza al vino.

Ottimo come aperitivo, il Gewürztraminer Alto Adige DOC di Colterenzio si abbina splendidamente a piatti della cucina asiatica, formaggi erborinati e frutti di mare. Perfetto per chi cerca un vino aromatico e di grande personalità, capace di conquistare con la sua eleganza e complessità.

Production philosophy
Teamwork among partners, careful vineyard selection and hand harvesting, reduced yields for premium selections, and a quality-focused approach. In recent years there has also been a clear commitment to sustainable practices and energy efficiency in the winery.
Terroir and vineyards
