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 of Northern Italy and cover 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.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD:
Moriz Pinot Bianco is sourced from vineyards planted between 250 and 550 metres above sea level, in the calcareous clay and gravel soils common to the area of Sella near Tramin. The name of this wine comes from the patron of Sella, Saint Mauritius.
THE WINEMAKING PROCESS:
The grapes were harvested in small bins and gently pressed off to steel tanks where the must was allowed to ferment at a controlled temperature of 19°C, without malolactic conversion to retain the crisp palate. 80% of the wine was aged in stainless steel and 20% in large oak casks of 30 to 40 hectolitres, imparting subtle oak complexity.
OUR TASTING NOTE:
This Pinot Bianco shows aromas of pear and citrus, with a complex buttery flavour, herbaceous nuances and a hint of minerality. The richly textured palate is beautifully balanced by a bright, refreshing and salivating finish.
GRAPE VARIETY:
Pinot Blanc 100%.
