Features
Name:
Gewürztraminer SüdTirol Vinschgau AOC 2022
Terrain:
sandy soils interspersed with granite, gneiss, slate, mica and quartz
Cellar
At the foot of the Sonnenberg in Naturno, at an altitude of 600-900 metres, Alpine and Mediterranean atmospheres intertwine and create a unique combination. The arid boulders create a wonderful contrast to the magnificent vines that thrive on the steep south and south-west facing slopes. While the sun shines during the day, evening air currents cool the vineyards from the heat of the day. Almost ideal conditions for a wine-growing area in South Tyrol. A winegrowing family. Craftsmanship and love of detail. Authenticity. Innovative tradition

Storage time:
2-5 years
