Gewurztraminer Cantina Terlano 2025

The Gewurztraminer from Cantina Terlano is a wine produced from aromatic Gewurztraminer grapes. A grape variety that takes its name from the village of Termeno, in the lower Atesina, and has always been a pillar of the winemaking tradition of the region. Protected from cold winds by the peaks of the Alps, the vines enjoy a good temperature range between day and night that promotes perfect development of the aromas within the berry and that elegance which is hard to forget.

The story of Cantina Terlano with its Gewurztraminer begins at an altitude of between 270 and 900 meters, in a small basin nestled in the mountains of the upper Adige valley, with a predominant exposure to the south or southwest where sand, clay, and silica give character and longevity to this extraordinary white wine. The harvest begins with the manual selection of the bunches, then once in the winery, a gentle whole-bunch pressing takes place. The fermentation occurs slowly at controlled temperature inside stainless steel tanks, followed by aging for 5 to 7 months on the fine lees always in steel.

The Gewurztraminer from Cantina Terlano presents itself in the glass with a bright straw yellow, with aromas of lychee and tropical fruit delighting the nostrils, also stimulated by a light spiciness reminiscent of clove. It finishes with a delicate rose, a typical marker of this grape variety. Upon the first sip, what surprises is the coherence with the olfactory notes. Liveliness and freshness compose a sip that impresses also for its mineral notes, thus creating a full and persistent aftertaste. This Gewurztraminer is a rich wine, an ambassador of a proud and vibrant wine identity of a region that has always amazed for the quality and variety of wines that, in the presence of the Alps, it gives us.
