This dessert wine is born from a meticulous drying process enriched by the development of \u003cstrong\u003enoble rot\u003c\/strong\u003e, which enhances its natural sweetness and aromatic depth. In the glass, it presents a bright appearance with golden and amber reflections, anticipating a full and enveloping palate where the distinct sugar component finds balance in a lively acidity. The intensely spicy bouquet highlights the character of a wine capable of a \u003cstrong\u003elong evolution over time\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vineyards are located in the mountainous territory of South Tyrol, in the municipality of Eppan, at an altitude of approximately 530 metres. This environment favours slow ripening, which is essential for preserving the fruit's natural freshness. The stony, limestone soils, characterised by the presence of gravel and \u003cstrong\u003ewhite dolomitic rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, give the flavour profile concentration and a pleasant mineral tension. The Andriano winery makes the most of these slopes through \u003cstrong\u003elate harvesting\u003c\/strong\u003e, a technique aimed at maximising the aromatic complexity of the grape variety and ensuring \u003cstrong\u003eoptimal drying\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProcessing begins in December with grapes dried by noble rot, which is essential for concentrating sugars and extractive substances. The process involves a \u003cstrong\u003ethree-hour maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e followed by soft pressing. Fermentation and subsequent ageing take place in \u003cstrong\u003ebarrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for a period of eleven months. The result is a passito of great depth, balanced by a distinct freshness. Intense \u003cstrong\u003enotes of honey\u003c\/strong\u003e, vanilla, quince, and candied orange peel emerge on the nose, making it ideal for pairing with chocolate desserts, creamy risottos, or tender meats.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and interesting facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Juvelo dessert wine originates from the passion and history of the Andriano winery, which has been cultivating vines with dedication since 1893. Among the most interesting features of this wine is the harvesting of the grapes, which takes place in December to allow for the development of noble rot. This practice, combined with cultivation at an altitude of 530 metres on soils rich in Dolomitic rock, ensures the wine has an extraordinary ageing potential, estimated at between 10 and 20 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Andriano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46955500273835,"sku":"61581","price":40.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/cantina-andriano-gewurztraminer-passito-juvelo-0-375l-2024_61581_1_289dd602-d35c-4588-a1f8-0a6a36d57371.webp?v=1787875563","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-ch\/products\/cantina-andriano-gewurztraminer-passito-juvelo-0-375l-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
