ELYÒND - The name comes from the legends of the Dolomites and means: mountain princess with golden hair. The label was designed by the artist Robert Bosisio. The Laimburg Elyònd Alto Adige Gewurztraminer Riserva comes from Sella, the sun terrace of Alto Adige. After manual picking and fermentation, this wine remains on lees (sur lie) for between 8-10 months and after bottling also receives a few months of bottle aging before being released. This great wine is rich, golden yellow and aromas of roses, lavender and dried figs define the aroma spectrum. The very pleasant persistent acidity coming from the altitude (Alto Adige) provides elegance and finesse. The Elyònd is lush but very well balanced and nice and dry and it is precisely the latter that makes this gewurztraminer so beautiful.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Deze Riserva toont een weelderig, goudgeel karakter met intense aroma's van rozen, lavendel en gedroogde vijgen, ondersteund door warme kruidigheid, rijpe fruittonen en een frisse, aanhoudende zuurgraad die de 15% alcohol mooi in balans houdt. Daardoor vormt hij een mooie match bij gevogelte omdat de rijkdom en zuurgraad vet en saus tot leven brengen, bij kazen omdat de aromatische en kruidige tonen goed samengaan met zowel romige als pittig-gerijpte exemplaren, en bij pittige gerechten en borrelhapjes omdat de droge afdronk en uitgesproken smaak het pallet verfrissen en tegenwicht bieden. Probeer hem bij langzaam geroosterde kip of eend met sinaasappel en kruiden, bij volle kazen zoals Munster of oude Comté, of bij licht gekruide Aziatische gerechten en charcuterie om het beste uit deze Gewurztraminer te halen.

The grapes come from the agribusiness vineyards in Laimburg; of about 20 hectares of vineyards in different wine-growing areas of Alto Adige. The vineyards are on the plain or are distributed on hilly and steep slopes with very different soils: moraine and alluvial soils alternate with primary rock and loamy limestone gravel. The grapes grow at altitudes between 200 and 750 meters above sea level in different training systems such as pergola or trellis, depending on the needs of the respective grape variety. In its role as a model winery, the Laimburg winery produces about 90,000 bottles of wine annually, with the main aim of bringing into the glass the varietal character of the approximately 15 typical varieties of the province.

The diversity of grape varieties in Alto Adige is also reflected in the range of wines produced at Laimburg Winery; in addition, a wide variety of grape varieties are tested at different altitudes to determine the ideal vineyard locations. In addition to the classic South Tyrolean grape varieties, Laimburg Winery is also increasingly testing new or interesting grape varieties from around the world (e.g. Tannat, Petit Verdot, Incrocio Manzoni and new varieties such as Solaris and Cabernet Cortis) for cultivation and vinification in South Tyrol. The top line wines of Laimburg  are of a very high quality and are among the finest available in Alto Adige. Beautiful wines with good acidity that makes the typical beautiful aging possible.
