WINES OF NORTHERN ITALY
Pinot Nero Alto Adige DOC
Tramin discovered early on that the finicky Pinot Nero really prospered in the cool, moderate
microclimate of the southern Alto Adige region. Made entirely from Pinot Nero (elsewhere known as
Pinot Noir), which is perfected in a combination of stainless steel, barriques and large casks, this wine is
illustrative of why Tramin continues to be ranked as “Tre Bicchieri” (3-stars) by Gambero Rosso.
Lagrein Alto Adige DOC
Made from 100% Lagrein from southern Alto Adige, this deeply colored wine is a classic example of this
ancient variety. After a short but intense maceration, the wine is aged in a combination of large oak
casks and cement tanks to ensure softer tannins and greater finesse.
Terminum Vendemmia Tardiva DOC
Terminum was the Roman name of Termeno, the village for which Tramin is named. This vendemmia
tardiva is made from 100% late-harvested Gewürztraminer, the most renowned white varietal from Alto
Adige. The must spends about 18 hours in contact with the skins in order to absorb all of the exotic
aromas and flavors of Gewürztraminer.
