This centuries-old producer in South Tyrol crafts its wines out of grape varieties indigenous to their terroir, which abuts Lake Kaltern. A spicy, rich, complex and fascinating Gewürztraminer, the ’07 Exilissi is the product of the kind of growing season that gives grapes ample opportunity to revel in their terroir. This almost dry wine holds plenty of complexity; in fact, the winemaker suggests decanting the ’07 Exilissi to give it its full glory. Toffee, candied citrus, pineapple, wild alpine flowers, and a dust of spices make this wine exceptional—and exceptionally rewarding. Drinking now.
