Tenuta Pacher Hof
Gewurztraminer, Alto Adige, Valle Isarco, 2021
justerini & brooks tasting note
A clearly pronounced varietal character here with notes of rose petals, rhubarb, melon and honeyed spices, the Gewurz has a perfumed and aromatic profile but one with a certain delicacy too. Layered with fine berried and citrus fruits and harmonised by a thread of gentle yet present supporting acidity, it has a stoniness to the palate that speaks to exciting, mineral soils. Fermented to dry levels of residual sugar (ca. 5g/l) and raised in large cask for six months.
