Description

Description:
After ten years maturation on the fine lees in 500-litre barrels, the Gewürztraminer develops a creamy texture without sacrificing freshness. Prolonged lees contact also imparts charming aromas of toasted bread, medlar, blossom honey and dried fruit. The sweet fruitniness recedes during the years of maturation, allowing mineral expression to step to the fore. This great growth from the Pirchschrait impresses in the glass with a subtle play of aromas and flavours.
The Gewürztraminer from the Pirchschrait vineyard at the Kolbenhof estate pays homage to Konrad Oberhofer who was the first to vinify grapes from different vineyards separately in the 1930s. He - Martin Foradori Hofstätter's grandfather - was a pioneer of the single vineyard philosophy. It was his goal to express the unique character of each site in its wine.

Grape variety:
Gewürztraminer - South Tyrol Alto Adige DOC
Only the "Vigna" classification guarantees the origin of a single-vineyard wine in Italy.

Production area:
Single-vineyard wine from the Kolbenhof estate in Tramin. Soil: Clay with gravel and lime.

Vinification:
The hand picked grapes will lightly crushed and the juice is left in contact with the skins for a few hours to enhance the wine's typical fruit flavour. The berries are then gently pressed, the juice is clarified using natural sedimentation and fermented at a controlled temperature. After fermentation the Pirchschrait Gewürztraminer is matured together with the fine lees for ten years, during which period the lees are stirred periodically (battonage).

Food Pairing:
The wine is delicious enjoyed in solitude, though it is perfect to accompany shellfish, oysters or foie gras, sophisticated fish dishes and asian inspired food.

Serving temperature:
8 - 10°C.

Ageing potential:
more than 10 years.

Bottle to:
750 ml - 75 cl - 0,75 lt.

Allergens:
Wine can contain sulphites.

Producer:
J.Hofstätter Winery
In 1907, Josef Hofstätter founded a winery in Termeno which has developed today into the largest family estate winery in all of Alto Adige. Areas of cultivation of 50 hectares in the west and the east of the Bassa Atesina, in the south of Trentino and, as the first winegrower from Italy, even to the Saarland in Germany are tended under the direction of Martin Foradori and the J. Hofstätter brand.
Soils, climate, elevation: all of these should be reflected by the wines of J. Hofstätter. They focus on local grapes: Pinot Blanc, Lagrein, Schiava, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Noir.
