Description
In the language of our 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 us 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. We have slowly accustomed this variety, whose cultivation is not as simple as generally assumed, to the special conditions of our mountain slopes.

The TRAMIN Winery applies a high-quality standard to all aspects of the work, from the simplest to the most complex.
This criterion addresses the fundamental points in vine growing and the relationship with the environment. Awareness of the fact that they possess a natural asset with extraordinary qualities makes the wine growers sensitive to the demands of the vine, which have always driven the quest for the perfect balance between production and vegetation. Another ongoing objective of the Company is the use of increasingly natural and eco-compatible cultivation techniques.
The wines of the TRAMIN Winery are the result of a deep knowledge of the wine-growing region and its climate. Indeed, the continental climate of the region, with its remarkable temperature differences between seasons (hot, dry summers followed by harsh and often snowy winters) and even between day and night, plays its part in making the taste of Tramin wines unique to the palate.
The oenologist pays scrupulous attention to all of this and to other factors in looking for new blends and nuances of taste. As for results and success, we invite you to consult the www.tramin-wine.it site to browse the list of prizes and recognitions awarded. As an example, we can mention the title of ‘Italian winemaker of the year’ awarded in 2004 by the prestigious "Gambero Rosso and Slow Food Wines of Italy" guide to Willi Stürz, the Winery’s winemaker.
