Tramin STOAN Wine Gift; Top wine from Northern Italy

The Tramin STOAN is one of the top wines from the Cantina Tramin wine estate from the beautiful Alto Adige in Northern Italy. Wine Spectator even gives this wine 92/100 points! That is why the Tramin STOAN wine gift could not be missing from our assortment! A delicious blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Bianco, and Gewürztraminer offers a fantastic balance between structure and minerality. This wine owes its minerality to the terroir where the grapes grow: a gravelly and rocky soil of slate and loam, bursting with minerals. The name ‘stoan’ refers to the local dialect for the word ‘stone’.

Packaged in a luxurious wooden wine box with a sliding lid on a bed of wood wool, the Tramin Stoan wine gift is the ideal present for wine lovers of harmonious Italian white wines. Naturally delicious to open immediately, but it has a storage potential of 7 to 10 years after the vintage!

The largest part of the wine consists of Chardonnay (65%), which is further supplemented with Sauvignon, Pinot Bianco and Gewürztraminer. The grapes are harvested in small baskets so that they remain whole for as long as possible. As soon as they arrive at the winery, they are gently pressed and slowly fermented at a controlled temperature. Subsequently, the juice is transferred to large wooden vats where malolactic fermentation takes place. After fermentation, the wine ages on its own for 10 months in large wooden vats on the lees. After blending, the wine ages for at least another 3 months in the bottle.

Tasting note of the Tramin Stoan

The wine has a light golden color. On the nose, it is an elegant and refined wine with fruity notes: peach, apricot, pear, elderflower, kumquat, white flowers, and the refined spicy aromas of jasmine and mimosa. On the palate, intense fruit flavors of pineapple, banana, pear, tomato, leaves, green pepper, and lemon zest. The wine is harmonious and very well balanced. The delicate salty minerals complete the picture, combined with a long, creamy finish.

A great wine that pairs with a wide variety of dishes! Virtually all appetizers match this wine. Fish dishes, seasoned white meat, and spicy pork are also a good match.
