Descrizione

An enveloping, fresh and fragrant Gewürztraminer.

A great white that comes from perfectly pure berries, picked just overripe. It is left to rest in steel tanks for about four months.

A label that is remembered for its heady aroma. In the glass it shows a beautiful deep straw yellow color. Definitely intense and aromatic with strong aromas of rose petals, enriched by fruity notes reminiscent of pineapple and lychee. The sip is full aromatic, creamy, long and persistent.

Excellent as an aperitif, perfect in combination with shrimp cocktail.

Winery history

The winery traces its roots to the early 20th century: the company’s history began with cooperatives and small local wineries founded around 1900 and, through mergers over the course of the 20th century and in 2016, became the present-day Cantina Kaltern, which brings together hundreds of members and manages the vineyards around the lake.

Production philosophy

Collective production and connection to the territory: the cooperative values the work of its members, seeks quality and typicity linked to the lake's microclimate and the varying exposures of the vineyards, and focuses on sustainability in managing the vineyard landscape.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are spread around Lago di Caldaro, on alternating porphyritic and calcareous soils, with varied exposures and altitudes ranging from approximately 200 to 850 meters. An Alpine–Mediterranean influenced climate favors both aromatic white varieties and elegant reds.

Awards and recognitions

Awarded and reviewed wines by national and international guides and competitions.
