Pinot Blanc – 2024

Cantina Tramin Pinot Bianco – Pinot Blanc from South Tyrol

The Pinot Bianco 2024 from Cantina Tramin is an aromatic, dry Pinot Blanc from South Tyrol. It presents itself in light yellow nuances. The Cantina Tramin Pinot Bianco shows white flowers, crisp apples and notes of nuts and green foliage on the nose. The Pinot Bianco finds a good balance between body and acidity. The South Tyrolean wine is fresh and fruity with good richness and a fine melt. It is a versatile food companion, complementing fine appetizers and fish dishes just as well as antipasti with vegetables or dishes with white meat.

Cantina Tramin – Winemaking

The mild winter of the 2024 vintage with sufficient rainfall, as well as a warm March also blessed with rain, led to early bud break of the vines. Subsequently, it was rather cool and humid until the end of June, with the exception of a few early summer days in April. The summer was warm with many hours of sunshine, and a rainy autumn extended the grapes' ripening period. Overall, 2024 was therefore a challenging vintage that required many extra hours of work in the vineyard. Thanks to a consistent implementation of the quality philosophy, the experience of the winemakers, and the cooperation within the cooperative, remarkably high-quality grapes were harvested for Cantina Tramin, especially for the white grape varieties and Pinot Noir. Thus, the white wines of the 2024 vintage are delicate and fresh in the glass, while among the reds, the elegance of the Pinot Noir particularly stands out.

The Pinot Bianco vines for this Cantina Tramin wine grow on lime and gravelly loam soils on hillsides between 250 and 500 meters above sea level. The grapes were harvested by hand in several passes at the time of optimal physiological ripeness and brought to the winery building in small containers. There, they were destemmed and further processed under gentle pressing. Fermentation took place at a controlled temperature (19°C) in stainless steel tanks, where the aging also occurred, without malolactic fermentation.
