The Gewürztraminer Spätlese DOC Pasithea Oro from the 2022 vintage from the Girlan winery is a fascinating wine that impresses with its opulent elegance and aromatic richness. The color of this fine drop is a bright golden yellow, which already indicates its intense aroma. On the nose, the wine develops a sumptuous bouquet of exotic spices, ripe tropical fruits such as mango and passion fruit, accompanied by subtle floral notes of rose petals.
The main grape variety for this wine is Gewürztraminer, a characterful variety known for its intense aromas
and spicy notes. This grape variety contributes significantly to the wine's unique personality by revealing a complex sensory diversity that inspires both discerning connoisseurs and connoisseurs alike.
The special feature of this wine lies not only in its late harvest, which allows maximum development of aromas, but also in its name “Pasithea Oro”, which refers to the mythological figure of Pasithea, the goddess of peace and relaxation.
This is reflected in the harmonious balance and delightful character of this wine.
The Gewürztraminer Spätlese DOC Pasithea Oro undergoes careful aging, which may include partial fermentation and aging in wooden barrels to further refine its aromas and texture. The aging process then often takes place in bottles over several months before the wine develops its full potential and is ready to be enjoyed.
