Tramin Troy
Wine Description
In the language of Tramin's ancestors, “Troy” means “path”. This name epitomizes the journey that Cantina Tramin has taken through many years of research and experimentation.
A journey that has led them to study carefully every minute detail of Chardonnay, a noble grape variety from which some of the best white wines in the world are made.
Tramin has slowly accustomed this variety, whose cultivation is not as simple as generally assumed, to the special conditions of their mountain slopes.
"A high-elevation Chardonnay. Monumental.."
-Andrea Cuomo, GQ, April 2020

Analytical Data
Wine Production
During the manual harvest, each single grape is checked for quality. The grapes are delivered in small bins and pressed without being destemmed first. Both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation occurs in Bordeaux barrels. After 11 months on the fine lees the wine is transferred to stainless steel tanks for an additional 22 months of sur lie aging. Finally, the must clarifies naturally by sedimentation of the suspended particles.
