Konrad Oberhofer. Piazza Municipio, 7, 39040 Termeno (BZ)
Konrad Oberhofer's winery produces this Gewürztraminer that best represents the characteristics of the grape variety. A wine suitable for ageing, capable of evolving while refining its bouquet to the full. Once the grapes have reached full ripeness, they are harvested and brought quickly to the cellar to prevent spontaneous fermentation processes from starting. Here they are lightly crushed and the must is left in contact with the skins for a few hours. This is followed by careful pressing and the natural precipitation of the sediment. Then comes the fermentation phase, at a controlled temperature, to enhance the unique organoleptic characteristics of this wine. Straw yellow in colour, it has good concentration and a pronounced aromatic vein, with spicy-smoky notes of dried flowers and roses that tend to expand and enhance in the glass. In the mouth, it is dense and rich, with a nice body, remarkable freshness and vivacity. Perfect as an aperitif, it accompanies hors d'oeuvres, Asian cuisine and shellfish. For an unconventional pairing, you could also try it with fresh Gorgonzola.
Konrad Oberhofer was a winegrower with a pioneering approach. Recognising the potential of his vineyards, he began to vinify the grapes of the individual estates separately, thus increasing the quality of his wines. This modern vision soon led him to abandon the sale of bulk wine, opting for marketing in bottles. Today, with the same perseverance and passion as then, Martin Foradori has picked up his grandfather Konrad's baton, selecting and vinifying grapes from the prized vineyards of Alto Adige, in order to carry on the historic tradition of his family and its world-renowned wines. Whereas in the past it was the Schiava, a local native grape variety, that monopolised the market, today it is the other varieties such as Lagrein, also native, and the noble Pinot Noir. With them Gewürztraminer, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon and Müller Thurgau.
