The grapes, hand-harvested at the end of October, come from some of the oldest guyot-trained vineyards of the variety, with a limited yield that contributes to concentration and finesse. The style is that of a highly precise Alto Adige white wine, where aromatic richness is accompanied by tension, minerality, and gustatory depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a \u003cstrong\u003edeep straw yellow\u003c\/strong\u003e with golden reflections. The bouquet is broad and multifaceted, with rose petals, spiced white flowers, notes of lily, ylang ylang, and tiarè, followed by ripe yellow fruit and exotic hints of melon, mango, passion fruit, and lemon peel. The aromatic profile is completed with fine spices such as cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, and saffron. On the palate, it is full-bodied, deep, and juicy, supported by vibrant freshness and marked minerality, with a very persistent and seductive finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGewürztraminer Epokale 2016 Tramin\u003c\/strong\u003e pairs effectively with aromatic and structured dishes.
