ABOUT THE PRODUCER:
Cantina Tramin was founded in 1898 and has 310 member winegrowers who adhere to its strict directives on vine cultivation. The vineyards are an integral part of the enchanting and picturesque landscape of the Alto-Adige region in Northern Italy, covering 260 hectares situated on the sunny slopes of the region at altitudes ranging from 250 to 850 metres above sea level. In 2011, Cantina Tramin gained the “Double Stella” award – an extraordinary achievement, which is given to a winery for being awarded the prestigious “3 Bicchieri” 20 times by Gambero Rosso.

THE VINTAGE:
A mild and sunny winter with little rainfall was followed by a dry March, which resulted in relatively early budburst. Spring was cool and rainy, while warm sunny days alternated with rainy days in June. A hot summer, followed by rain at the beginning of September, demanded a lot of effort from the winegrowers, which was in turn rewarded with a splendid autumn and ideal harvest conditions. The red wines are characterised by elegance and finesse.

ABOUT THE VINEYARD:
The Südtirol/Alto Adige is the dynamic winegrowing region at the northern end of Italy that combines a brisk Alpine climate, mountain viticulture and complex geology with the brilliance of Mediterranean sunshine. At Cantina Tramin, the vineyards are cared for by the many hands of the 300 small growers whose heritage it is to coax the best out of their grapes, culminating in wines which reflect the uniqueness of the area. The vines for this wine are trained according to the Pergola and Guyot systems on southwestern-facing slopes. They yield 75 hectolitres per hectare. The vineyard soil is made up of clay, calcareous gravel and sand.

THE WINEMAKING PROCESS:
The grapes were destemmed and fermented at 28 to 30°C in stainless steel and cement vats with indigenous and selected yeasts. Malolactic conversion followed fermentation, and the wine was then aged for a minimum of six months in cement vats and oak barrels of different dimensions, adding subtle complexity.

OUR TASTING NOTE:
This vibrant Lagrein offers layered aromas of violet, blackberry, cherry and subtle earthy notes. Velvety smooth with notes of juicy raspberry, dark cherry and liquorice underpinned by a powerful structure and a dry, tangy finish.

GRAPE VARIETY:
Lagrein 100%.
