The Sanct Valentin Gewurztraminer produced by the prestigious St. Michael Eppan winery is a sublime expression of elegance and aromatic complexity, designed for lovers of high-end white wines. This Gewurztraminer comes from renowned vineyards located in the Appiano area on the Wine Road, in the heart of Alto Adige, an area known for its ability to produce exceptionally high-quality aromatic wines.

With its bright golden-yellow color, this wine stands out for its intense and enveloping aroma, where notes of exotic fruit, lychee, rose petals, and sweet spices such as cinnamon and cloves emerge. On the palate, it is rich and well-structured, with a perfect balance between acidity and alcohol, characterized by a pleasant softness and a long aromatic persistence that invites another sip.

The vinification of this Gewurztraminer is carried out with the utmost care: the grapes are handpicked and undergo a brief maceration before fermentation, which takes place at a controlled temperature to preserve the varietal aromas to the fullest. After fermentation, the wine matures in large steel containers for a few months before bottling.

Particularly recommended to accompany rich and flavorful dishes such as foie gras, spicy Asian cuisine, or blue cheeses, the Sanct Valentin Gewurztraminer from St. Michael Eppan is also perfect as an aperitif thanks to its freshness and inviting aromatic profile.

Acquiring a bottle of Sanct Valentin Gewurztraminer means enjoying a refined and memorable sensory experience, the result of the wine-making tradition of one of the most appreciated wineries in Alto Adige.
