Klinger, Gewürztraminer 2023

Small producer from Pressano in Trentino, where this grape feels at home. The Maso Clinga vineyard is located at an altitude of 350 meters, with 25-year-old vines. Harvested by hand at the end of September.

What you smell
Clear notes of lychee, rose petal, and ripe peach. A hint of spice in the background.

What you taste
Full and broad on the palate, with ripe yellow fruit. Fresh acidity keeps everything in balance, so it doesn't become heavy despite its body. Practically dry (3 grams residual sugar) with a long, spicy finish.

How it's made
100% Gewürztraminer. Several hours of cold maceration for extra aroma. Fermentation and maturation for 7 months in stainless steel, then at least 10 months in the bottle. No wood, so the fruit remains prominent.

Serving
Serve at 10 to 12 degrees Celsius. Decanting is not necessary. A somewhat wider white wine glass helps the aromas to fully develop.

Pairs well with

  • Thai green curry: the aromatic spiciness of the wine matches the coconut and ginger.
  • Aged Munster cheese: the body and slight residual sugar complement the strong, pungent cheese.
  • Roasted duck with orange: the ripe fruit aligns with the sweet sauce, and the acidity cuts through the fat.

Alto Adige is de noordelijkste wijnstreek van Italië en voelt er ook naar: bergdorpen, Duitse plaatsnamen en wijngaarden die tot ver boven de 700 meter reiken. Dat samen met grote temperatuurverschillen tussen dag en nacht levert aromatische witte wijnen en verfijnde rode op.
