Gewürztraminer DOC Arenis KURTATSCH 750ml 2020

The name Arenis is derived from the Ital. 'arenaria rossa', meaning 'red sandstone'.

This rock gives the east-facing sand and clay soils their striking colour. The vineyards between 300 and 400 metres above sea level in the South Tyrolean Unterland are not
only considered an ideal terroir but also the home of the Gewürztraminer, which is very demanding in terms of location. Due to the greatly reduced vine yield, the Arenis
shows a very complex bouquet: roses, lychee, jasmine and exotic spices. A pronounced mineral nerve gives the full-bodied wine a lingering freshness. Arenis is expressive,
yet easy to drink and balances perfectly between intensity and elegance.
