Villa Corniole
Villa Corniole, Gewurztraminer, 2023
The Villa Corniole Gewürztraminer 2023 highlights Trentino's cool-climate mountain terroir, yielding a highly aromatic white wine with exceptional finesse. It delivers the classic, intense varietal notes of rose petals, lychee, and ginger, but the cool nights provide a vibrant, savory acidity that perfectly balances the richness. This sophisticated, dry, and food-friendly wine is an ideal pairing for spicy Asian cuisine or rich seafood.
Integrated vineyard management: an agricultural approach aimed at protecting vines from diseases, pests, and weather conditions in a sustainable and targeted manner. This method combines various strategies, such as using resistant plants, biological control, rational use of plant protection products, and conscientious management of soil and the surrounding environment. Biological control: Natural predators of vineyard pests, such as predatory insects or bacteria that act against harmful fungi, are favored. Monitoring: Constant monitoring of vine conditions is carried out to intervene promptly in case of problems, reducing the need for massive treatments. Targeted chemical control: If necessary, plant protection products are used in a targeted manner and in accordance with regulations, avoiding waste and reducing environmental impact. Cultural techniques: Agronomic practices such as correct pruning, irrigation management, and balanced fertilization are adopted to promote vine health. This approach requires a deep understanding of the vineyard ecosystem and careful resource management but leads to quality wine production while reducing environmental impact and dependency on chemical substances.
The grapes are harvested manually and selectively in the first half of September. Fermentation at a controlled temperature and aging for a few months take place in stainless steel tanks. Further refinement in the bottle follows for a few months.
Trento - Alto Adige
The 2023 growing season in Trentino was highly challenging due to a very rainy spring that increased fungal disease pressure, significantly reducing overall yields. Despite these climatic hurdles, the diligence of winemakers ensured a high-quality harvest, especially for white varieties. The resulting white wines, such as Chardonnay, are expected to be fresh, refined, and elegant, showcasing intense fruitiness and bright acidity.
