Gewürztraminer
Trentino DOC
Gewürztraminer is an aromatic grape variety of Alsatian origin, cultivated for many years in small areas of the Pressano hills, where the clay rich soils are well suited to its nutritional needs.
A wine of a full and well-structured bouquet, this Gewürztraminer has a deep golden colour and spicy floral scents of cloves and nutmeg. In the mouth, its full and consistent body envelops the whole palate.
