Epokale · Gewürztraminer Spätlese DOC 2016


Kellerei Tramin, South Tyrol
´Epokale´ · Gewürztraminer Spätlese DOC 2016, Kellerei Tramin, South Tyrol
Epokale was the first Italian white wine to be awarded 100 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. This wine contradicts the classic notion of a South Tyrolean Gewürztraminer, redefines boundaries and impressively shows what this great variety is capable of. To mature with dignity, the 2,400 bottles of Epokale disappear into an old mine for six years. When the 'Traminer from the mine' comes to light again, it is always a celebration for wine enthusiasts and critics alike.

Bright intense golden yellow color in the glass. Intense and impressive nose of rose petals, lavender, honeydew melon, mango and passion fruit. Strong presence on the palate, elegant and graceful, with enormous depth. Of pronounced aromatics, full-bodied and extract-rich but with fine spicy juiciness and salty minerality. Endless finish. - Gerardo [TS11/17]

"Cantina Tramin has dedicated enormous effort to Gewürztraminer over the years, and this wine represents a culmination of research and experimentation. The 2016 Alto Adige Gewürztraminer Spätlese Epokale (with only 2,400 bottles in existence) starts off in stainless steel and ages for six long years in bottle at the back of an old mountain mine. It opens to a luminous off-gold color and offers extraordinary aromas of drunken pear, babà Napoletano, confectionary sugar, tarte aux pommes and an exotic hint of baklava. You get the drift." - Monica Larner (Robert Parkers Wine Advocate)

"After bottling, the bottles are stored for about 7 years in an old mine at over 2,000m sea level,. Golden yellow. On the nose, intense aromas of citrus, exotic fruits and lavender. In the mouth it shows extreme finesse and elegance with a deep and clear finish." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)

"Sparkling, rich golden yellow with a green glow. Complex and intense nose of ripe peach and apricot, some dried orange peel and cloves. Round and full on the palate, lots of present fruit, spreads out with firm pressure, but seems a little ponderous overall, with a slight bitter note on the finish." -
Falstaff
