Steinmetz-Jungers Gewuerztraminer Branco

Description

According to its age, the wines may show signs left by time, such as dust residue on the bottles and/or some damage to the labels—common in wines that have been stored for decades. Garrafeira Nacional is required to store all wines at the correct temperature and humidity, but it always chooses to preserve the visual appearance that comes with age. We generally select brands/regions that normally perform well in old wine tastings. However, wine is a living organism that, like everything else, is exposed to time, and even inside a bottle its aromas evolve in different ways. Therefore, Garrafeira Nacional cannot be held responsible for the quality of the wine, as it is an old wine. Our recommendation is to open and let the bottle air out beforehand, which helps release the wine’s natural aromas after so many years of being sealed. Avoid decanting, as it can be too aggressive for old wines. (illustrative image only)
