Territory and wine style

The Pirchschrait vineyard is part of the Kolbenhof estate and represents the concept of Vigna in South Tyrol, where the origin from a specific plot best expresses the pedoclimatic nuances of the place. The clay and limestone gravel soils contribute to giving the wine a savory texture and a defined profile. The vinification involves a short maceration on the skins, a gentle pressing, and a controlled temperature fermentation, while the prolonged maturation on fine lees adds complexity and depth without sacrificing freshness.

Tasting notes

The Gewürztraminer Vigna Pirchschrait 2010 presents itself with an intense and articulated personality, capable of uniting aromatic richness and balance. On the nose, sensations of loquat, honey, dried fruit, and toasted bread emerge, with an evolving profile that tells of the long maturation. On the palate, it is enveloping, full, and persistent, but kept alive by a freshness that accompanies its energy. The style is rich, aromatic, and harmonious, with a long and satisfying finish.

Recommended pairings

This Gewürztraminer shines with shellfish, structured fish, foie gras, and dishes from Thai cuisine, where aromaticity and spiciness find a natural dialogue. It is also a wine for meditation, ideal to enjoy alone to capture every nuance. Thanks to its intensity and maturation complexity, it pairs well with rich preparations that are not overly aggressive.

Serving temperature

Serve the Gewürztraminer Vigna Pirchschrait 2010 at a temperature of 10-12°C, to enhance its aromas and structure. If the bottle is opened in advance, it is useful to let it breathe for a few minutes in the glass to favor the aromatic evolution, without resorting to invasive decanters.
