Gewürztraminer 2022

An intensely fragrant Alpine white wine bursting with exotic fruit, rose petals and delicate spices. A wonderful companion to Asian cuisine!

Tramin Gewürztraminer 2022

Tramin Gewürztraminer 2022 is a classic Italian white wine made from 100% Gewürztraminer by Cantina Tramin in South Tyrol (Alto Adige), the historical home of this famously aromatic grape variety. Grown in Alpine vineyards at altitudes of approximately 300–450 metres, on calcareous clay and gravel soils, this wine beautifully expresses the rich, exotic character of Gewürztraminer from northern Italy.

Interestingly, Gewürztraminer takes its name from the village of Tramin, home of Cantina Tramin, while the German word Gewürz refers to the grape's famously spicy, intensely aromatic character. Although the grape's precise geographical origins remain debated, its name reflects a centuries-old connection with this Alpine wine-growing village. Today, Gewürztraminer is also famously associated with Alsace in France.

It features captivating aromas of rose petals, lychee, ripe mango and tropical fruit, complemented by delicate hints of ginger and exotic spices. On the palate, it is rich, aromatic and wonderfully expressive, with juicy tropical fruit flavours, a rounded texture and refreshing acidity. Its subtle spicy notes and long, fragrant finish make it a distinctive and memorable white wine.

A fantastic white wine for Asian cuisine! Gewürztraminer's exotic fruit and aromatic spice character make it particularly enjoyable with Thai curries, Indian dishes, Chinese roast pork and other flavourful Asian food. It also pairs beautifully with pâté, aromatic cheeses and lightly spiced poultry dishes. An excellent choice for anyone looking for something more adventurous than Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc.
