The Elena Walch Selezione Gewürztraminer Alto Adige is a first-class white wine. It has a wonderfully dense, copper-golden color. Swirling the glass, this white wine reveals a high viscosity, which can be seen in the strong stained glass windows at the edge of the glass. In the glass, this white wine from Elena Walch presents aromas of lime, orange blossom, acacia, cherry blossom and honeysuckle, complemented by gingerbread spice, vanilla and dark chocolate. On the palate, the Selezione Gewürztraminer Alto Adige from Elena Walch is wonderfully aromatic, fruity and balanced. Some wines are dry on the label, others really are. This white wine belongs to the second group, as it was bottled with only 2.5 g of residual sugar. Thanks to its balanced fruit acidity, the Selezione Gewürztraminer Alto Adige flatters the palate with a soft sensation without lacking any juicy liveliness. On the finish, this youthful white wine from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region impresses with its considerable length. Once again, there are hints of cherry blossom and acacia.
