Cantina Tramin - Stoan 2022 - Südtirol - Alto Adige DOC - 75cl

                

1 BOTTLE X 75cl. 

Appellation: Alto Adige DOC Vintage: 2016 Vintage description: In spite of changeable temperatures in spring, bud break and flowering started around the average time for the last years. The damp months of May and June increased the danger of fungus infection. This demanded attention, sensitivity and hard work in the vineyard, and, thanks to intermittent sunny, drying days, this could be compensated for. This was followed by wonderfully dry weeks from the end of August on; in addition, warm days alternated with periodically very cool nights in September and October. This fantastic fall slowed the ripening process, and the harvest started about a week later than average. The maturity window was set perfectly and the harvest brought perfectly healthy grapes with optimum physiologic ripeness. The white wines present themselves very balanced, powerful, juicy and fresh, with complex structure. The red wines offer extraordinary ripe tannins and are fruity, powerful and balanced, with enormous depth. Grapes: Chardonnay 65%, Sauvignon 20%, Pinot Blanc 10%, Gewürztraminer 5% Yield: 45 hl/hectare Vineyards: Altitude: 400 – 600 m Soil: gravelly to rocky, limestone and loam, rich in minerals. Age of the vines: 10 – 40 years Slope exposure: southeast 90 %, south 10 % Climate: Extreme interplay of sunny days influenced by the Mediterranean climate and the cool nights marked by the cold downslope winds from the surrounding mountains. Harvest date: end of September – mid- October Vinification: At harvest, the grapes were delivered in small bins and immediately gently pressed. Fermentation took place slowly at controlled temperatures (18-20°C) in wood barrels (30 – 40 hl), in which partial malolactic fermentation took place. Clarification took place through natural sedimentation of particles. Maturation: It matured separately in large wood barrels (30-40 hl), at constant contact with the lees until the end of August. After blending and bottling, the wine matured in the bottle for at least another 3 months. The total maturation period is thus at least 14 months. . Sensory characteristics: Color: light golden Aroma: Elegant and refined, fruity notes of peach, apricot, pear, elderflower, kumquat, white flowers with fine spicy notes, jasmine, mimosa. Taste: Deep fruit aromas of pineapple, banana, pear, tomato leaves, green bell pepper, citrus zest, harmonic and balanced, delicate salty minerality with a long lasting, creamy finish. Food pairing: Ideal accompaniment to many tasty first courses, excellent with fish dishes and seasoned white meat or also with spicy pork with mushrooms.
