High above Bolzano, where the steep porphyry slopes of the Ritten rise 650 metres into the Alpine air, one of South Tyrol’s most distinctive Gewürztraminers thrives. Kleinstein is the result of uncompromising selection: Cellar master Stephan Filippi selects grapes exclusively from those vineyards where the volcanic terroir and the extreme day-night temperature fluctuations draw out the full aromatic power of this regal grape variety. These privileged plots on the Ritten tell a geological story: Ancient volcanic rock and mineral-rich weathered soils create a terroir of rare intensity. Here, the Gewürztraminer grapes ripen under the South Tyrolean sun, whilst cool mountain winds provide the freshness that gives this premium wine its impressive balance.

An intense straw-yellow colour with golden highlights in the glass, an opulent bouquet of rose petals and cloves, exotic lychee notes, grapefruit and tropical fruits, refined by a delicate hint of honey. On the palate, full-bodied complexity unfolds with spicy depth and a hint of residual sweetness – a Gewürztraminer for connoisseurs and special occasions. SUPERIORE.DE

"Delicate nose of lychee and light floral hints; there's a gently aromatic density to the palate and refreshing acidity." Decanter
