The estate’s 2005 Gewurztraminer reveals incredible depth, purity and focus in its minerally, varietal fruit, with superb length and a finish that lasts forever. It is a terrific effort. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2009. I was delighted to discover the wines of Kofererhof during a trip to the region last year. The estate is located in the Valle Isarco. Up until a few years ago Kofererhof sold its fruit to the nearby Abbazia di Novacella. The estate manages just under six hectares of vineyards, all of which are planted to high densities. Most of the wines are fermented and aged in stainless steel although a small portion of the Sylvaner and Pinot Grigio are aged in mid-size casks. These are richly, structured, concentrated wines packed with personality. They also offer outstanding quality for the money. The current vintage is 2006 but I also include notes on a few 2005s I was able to taste.Importer: A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel.
