THE WINE

The Gewurztraminer Vendemmia Tardiva from the Cesconi winery is an exclusive sweet wine crafted from 100% Gewurztraminer grapes. These grapes are nurtured in the winery’s vineyards, nestled on the hill of Pressano, a quaint hamlet in the Trentino area.

THE WINEMAKING

The harvest is strictly manual. The grapes are left to sub-ripen on the vine and harvested between November and December. After soft pressing, the wine ferments slowly. It ages in small oak barrels for at least twelve months; after blending and bottling, it rests in the cellar for at least another six months before being released on the market.

THE TASTING

Golden yellow, the aroma is elegant and intense with pleasant hints of exotic fruit such as papaya and mango, which leave room for hints of pineapple and lychee, to close with hints of fresh fruit such as peach and apricot. Fresh and balanced on the palate, sweet but not cloying, it makes you want to drink. Excellent correspondence between aromas and flavour with very long persistence.

FOOD PAIRINGS

This Gewurztraminer is perfect with dessert, excellent with blue cheeses, and we recommend it as a meditation wine.
