The Gewürztraminer DOC "Graf" from Cantina di Merano celebrates the winemaking tradition of South Tyrol, originating from the hills of Labers, Lagundo, Lana, and Tirolo, situated at an altitude between 400 and 500 meters. These vineyards, aged between 10 and 15 years, are planted on light, permeable soils of morainic origin, rich in sand and gravel, ideal for enhancing the characteristics of the grape variety. Vinification begins with a 12-hour cold maceration, followed by alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperatures in small stainless steel tanks. Subsequently, the wine matures on the lees for six months, enriching itself with complexity and aromatic depth. In the glass, it presents a lively straw yellow color with mossy reflections. The bouquet is a symphony of floral and spicy aromas, with predominant notes of roses, mint, and lemon balm. On the palate, it stands out for its harmonious freshness, well-balanced softness, and a persistent aftertaste that invites further sips. This Gewürztraminer is magnificent as an aperitif and pairs perfectly with Asian cuisine and shellfish, enhancing the flavors and nuances of the dishes.

This cooperative, which was founded in 1901 with a few winegrowers, evolved in 2010 through the merger of two wineries: the Burggräfler winery and the Merano winery. Today it has over 360 members who support the renovation and expansion of the cellar. The objectives have always been: the production of high quality wines, which remain faithful to their roots, the care of the vineyards, the origin of the grapes and transparency. The passion of the winemakers for their work is the secret of their wines. The winery is located in a geographically advantageous area between the mountains and the lower Val Venosta, where a vast variety of grape varieties thrive and incredibly varied and exciting wines are produced. The members are located in two decidedly different wine areas: Merano and Val Venosta. The Merano area offers a sunny, fertile and mild hilly landscape with a Mediterranean charm, while the Val Venosta is characterized by an alpine climate, often extreme, with strong temperature variations between day and night and exceptionally steep vineyards with arid soils that reach 900 meters of height. The location, the land and the climatic conditions are examined with wisdom and scrupulousness in order to identify the optimal position for each individual vine. This is how an incredibly varied and exciting repertoire of wines is born thanks to the application of the most modern technologies together with the passion of hundreds of families who make quality their absolute priority every year.
