The Ansitz Dornach Patrick Uccelli winery was founded in 1788 by noble origins in Dornach, and is today looked after by the heirs of the Von Hausmann and von Gelmini families, who take care of the estate and vineyards every day. The company works under a regime of synergistic and biodynamic agriculture, much more than a simple agricultural technique and rather a real process of development in harmony with nature. Patrick Uccelli's wines are unique: a single, non-repeatable piece, as is also stated on the label. Gewürztraminer In Caso di Sete is a bottle made exclusively for the Signorvino brand. Made with 100% Gewürztraminer grapes from the vineyards of Dornach, in the province of Bolzano, worked according to biodynamic principles on a red clay soil rich in iron oxide. For this aromatic variety, native to the Alto Adige area, a long maceration in stainless steel and a subsequent fermentation in acacia barrels which give an intense, complex wine, pleasant to drink and with a delicious and long finish. It is a sparkling amber colour in the glass. The nose is a real explosion, with tropical notes of grapefruit, lime and lychee, enriched by intense floral aromas, especially dog rose, with a captivating spicy note. A vertical wine, which is fresh and deep, with an enthralling drinkability and good length. As Patrick says it is a gourmet wine which is "not easy but easy to drink". Excellent as an accompaniment to savoury dishes and a perfect pairing with exotic dishes, rich in spices and hints of sweetness. A must try with a plate of seafood.
