Villa Wolf Pfalz Gewürztraminer 2020 (Germany)

Description

• Dry style
• Exotic fruit
• Spice aromas
• Clean & fruity

Gewürztraminer is a wildly aromatic variety that produces very distinctive wines. Villa Wolf Gewürztraminer is clean, fruity and wonderfully light on its feet. It shows off the aromatic charm of the grape with a deliciously juicy texture and a delicate aroma of spice, exotic fruits and fresh roses. To preserve a lively balance in the wine, the fruit is picked when it is perfectly ripe, but not over-ripe.

The Pfalz (aka ‘Palatinate’) region is in the Rhine river valley in southwest Germany, directly north of France’s Alsace region. The low-lying Haardt mountains protect the area from cold, wet Atlantic weather, making it one of the warmer and drier areas of Germany. Wine grapes do quite well here where it is possible to achieve full ripeness in every vintage. The predominant soil type in this area is well-drained, weathered sandstone. It produces wines with a fruit-driven purity and a stony structure.
