The 2019 Alto Adige Gewürztraminer Vigna Kastelaz is wild, fragrant and floral with honeysuckle, jasmine and all the other perfumed highlights that you can expect of this aromatic grape. The wine boasts rich fruit weight and some glossy glycerin to its appearance. It swirls slowly around the inside of your glass. The finish is like liquid honey.

The 2019 Vigna Kastelaz is a refined and elegant expression of the variety, yet that's not to say that it lacks the exotic florals and zesty spice that you'd hope to find in a glass of Gewurztraminer. Tropical notes of coconut, pineapple, mango and vanilla bean form a truly alluring display. It has oily textures that coast over a medium-body frame with just enough acid and sour citrus fruit to maintain perfect balance. Flavors of peach tea with a hint of mint linger long. Simply stated, it's gorgeous.
