Elena Walch 2012 Cashmere Passito White (Alto Adige)

Country: Italy / Cashmere Passito
Variety: White Blend Northeastern Italy
Winery: Elena Walch / Alto Adige

Made with Gewürztraminer and a drop of Sauvignon grapes that are left to dry for four months, this opens with aromas of nectarine, rose petal and baking spice. The rich, lingering palate delivers dried apricot, orange zest and candied fruit. Fresh acidity balances the sweet flavors.
