Traminer Aromantico Jerman – 2021

The wine Traminer Aromantico from  Jerman winery

The Traminer aromtico of the Jerman winery comes from 100% Traminer grapes grown in the vineyards owned by the winery. We are in Dolegna del Collio in the province of Gorizia. Here the land is called “ponca”; it is a rocky substrate composed of stratified marl and sandstone.

The Jerman winery was the first in Friuli to use the Stelvin screw cap model of the French company Pechiney: the winery chose this very technical closure to keep the fragrance and organoleptic qualities of the wine intact.

THE WINEMAKING

The harvest occurs in the first days of September, and only the selected grapes are taken to the cellar for winemaking. After the soft pressing, the wine ferments in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The ageing on the lees also occurs in the same steel tanks and lasts about ten months. After blending and bottling, the wine rests in the cellar for a few more months before being placed on the market.

Tasting the wine from Jerman

Straw yellow with golden reflections, this wine is intense and delicately aromatic on the nose with pleasant fruity hints. Dry and well-balanced on the palate, it has a nice savoury vein and a slightly bitter aftertaste typical of this wine. The finish is long and persistent.

FOOD PAIRINGS

It goes well with fish but also with medium-hard cheeses. Try it with asparagus risotto.
