Alto Adige is the best place in Italy for Gewürztraminer, and Franz Haas was one of the producers who put the region on the map. This is an expressive, aromatic white with the classic lychee, rose and clove character of the grape, given real structure and length by the cool mountain climate. It is a distinctive wine that suits people who want something a bit different from their whites.
The Haas family has been growing grapes in Montagna, within the province of Bolzano, for generations. However, it was only with Franz, who died prematurely in 2022, that they began to produce and bottle quality wines. Franz studied at Geisenheim in Germany before working as a broker of Italian wines in the German market. After several years, he took over the running of the family business. In the glass, this wine is an intense golden colour with a complex bouquet of lychee, orange peel and rose, and spiced notes of clove and nutmeg. The vivacious palate is full bodied and wonderfully structured, with lingering almond notes and a vibrant acidity on the finish.
Very good with Thai food, mild curries, Alsatian tarte flambée and soft washed-rind cheeses.
