Territory and wine style

The Mitterberg IGT designation expresses a South Tyrolean context dedicated to quality, with vineyards located between 500 and 550 meters above sea level and facing southeast. The gravelly and alluvial soils with a calcareous content contribute to giving momentum, precision, and depth to the sip. The grapes come from vineyards aged 15-20 years, and the manual harvest takes place at the end of September, when the fruit reaches a balance suitable for supporting a more structured and articulated winemaking. The style is that of an elegant, dry, and aromatic orange wine, capable of combining olfactory breadth and gustatory dynamism.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a striking copper color, immediately recognizable. On the nose, it offers an intense and complex bouquet, where oriental spices, exotic fruits, and a distinct hint of nutmeg emerge. The sip is dry, enveloping, and well-defined, with a balanced structure and an elegant tannicity that accompanies the finish. The freshness supports the wine without making it aggressive, while the aromatic persistence amplifies its charm and versatility at the table.

Recommended pairings

The Gewürztraminer Orange Mitterberg IGT - 2021 ENGLAR pairs effectively with spicy dishes and Asian cuisine, where aromaticity and structure find a natural meeting point. It is excellent with foie gras, aged cheeses, and truffle preparations, but can also surprise with flavorful white meat dishes or not overly sweet desserts, especially if they feature spices and dried fruit.

Serving temperature

To best appreciate its complexity and balance, serve the Gewürztraminer Orange Mitterberg IGT - 2021 ENGLAR at 12 °C. If possible, open it shortly before serving to enhance the aromatic expression; a long decanting is not necessary, unless personal preferences dictate or if serving a young bottle compared to the expected evolution.

Tenuta Schloss Englar offers a refined orange wine, produced in limited quantities and designed to evolve over time.
