Tramin Schiava
Wine Description
Located in the heart of Alto Adige in the town of Termeno on the south side of the Alps, Tramin comprises of one of the oldest networks of farmers forming a winery. Rich in tradition, Tramin’s wines are authentic expressions of a unique terroir, supported by a common philosophy of hard work, dedication, confidence and creativity among all participating members. Tramin operates on a human scale with a farmer-to-land ratio similar to that of a small estate, allowing for delicate hand-harvesting.
The grapes come from selected older vineyards planted at 300-450 m above sea level in calcareous clay and gravelly soils. They are characterized by a strong interplay between sunny days influenced by the Mediterranean climate and cool nights marked by the cold downslope winds.
