Winemaking process
Varieties:
Gewürztraminer is a typical grape variety of South Tyrol’s Unterland region that produces wines with floral and exotic notes, together with a pronounced tanginess.
Terroir:
The 35-year-old vines thrive in a small location at 400 meters above sea level in Montagna, where they grow on limestone soils with a porphyry infl uence and are tended by hand on wire frames (guyot) Regulation means that yields of just 4,000 kg per hectare can be expected.
Vinification:
The wine is aged in French tonneaux casks on the yeast with spontaneous fermentation and has a very good potential for aging.
Opinion
Anton Felix Longo
"This dry Gewürztraminer highlights exotic spices and floral aromas with no residual sweetness. Its crisp and refreshing finish enhances its rich, aromatic complexity. Drink or Hold."

Rose petals
entangled
passion fruit, pineapples, mangos appear.
Live in the wind.
Apricots, overripe peaches materialise. Soft cloud serenity.
Toffee sweetness.
Heavy butter and honeycomb infiltrate the night
building a wall around.
A.P.

The vineyards range from 240 metres a.s.l. up to Montagna, in the Trudner Horn Nature Park, where Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes thrive. The main varieties produced by the family winery are Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Cabernet. As a winemaker, Anton Baron Longo concentrates on wines that are distinguished by their elegance.
