Tramin Nussbaumer Gewürztraminer 2023

Vibrant, sun-kissed cast that evokes the warmth of exotic destinations. Delicate, heady scents of ripened tropical fruits and floral nuances mingle in harmony, accompanied by the sweetness of pineapple and lychee. The mouthfeel is a masterful evenness of bright liveliness and soft smoothness, yielding a rich, delightful finish that pairs exquisitely with the bold tones of chicken shawarma wraps. A true delight for the senses.

The glass is adorned with a radiant golden hue, and the nose is filled with a heady character of pineapple, lychee, and peaches, with understated subtle flavors of ginger and spices. The mouthfeel is intense and full, with a plush touch that wraps the palate. The sweetness of the fruits is refined by a enjoyable spicy undertone, providing a smooth balance. The impression is also adorned with a light mineral presence, which adds profoundness and complexity. The finish is long and satisfying, with the fruits, spices, and minerals all dancing together in perfect harmony. The tail remains pleasantly, leaving a sweet and spicy aftertaste. Paired well with Thai cuisine, this wine is a perfect match for the bold and aromatic tastes of pad Thai, soup, and spicy curry.

A-Z of grapes: Gewürztraminer #2 & another blistering Alto Adige example; the best Gewürz from the region comes from around the town of Tramin, Cantina Tramin being an excellent producer.
