The name Traminer appears for the first time in 1349 in Konrad Megenberg's "Book of Nature". The origins of this vine are uncertain; some believe they are in Alsace, others in the town of Termeno (Bolzano), still others in Wurttemberg, and finally in the Reno valley. The grapes are harvested manually in boxes. After a delicate destemming, cold maceration follows at a temperature of 12°. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature; at the end of alcoholic fermentation, the wine is kept in contact with the lees, in stainless steel containers for about 6 months. In the glass it has an intense straw yellow color. On the nose, the aroma is intense and varied with aromas ranging from yellow pulp fruits, lychee, rose, acacia flowers and saffron. On the palate it immediately proves to be a wine of great structure and balance based on sapid and fresh notes, supported by a never invasive softness and characterized by delicious almond nuances. An eclectic goblet that is excellent on the table as an aperitif or to accompany shellfish dishes, ethnic cuisine and spicy flavours.

The Pinot Noir grape variety is considered among the most noble red grape varieties in the world and also the most difficult to interpret. The origin of this vine is believed to be attributed to the French region of Burgundy. The grape harvest is manual, as it was once done. After a delicate destemming and crushing, fermentation follows with maceration on the skins in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. To extract color and aroma from the skins, several pumping overs are carried out and finally the maturation takes place in large wooden barrels. In the glass the color is a pale ruby red. The nose is intense and seductive with notes of raspberry, cherry, blackberry, violet and various spices. On the palate it is warm and enveloping, with lively notes of undergrowth. Thanks to its harmony, bringing this Pinot Noir to the table with red meat dishes, medium and long-aged cheeses and stewed fish will be a guaranteed success.

A long winter postponed the awakening of the vine to early April. A drop in temperatures after budding also delayed flowering. Subsequently, the weather remained capricious with a hot June and a humid July which laid the ideal foundations for the start of the maturation. August showed its best side with sunny weeks and exceptionally low night temperatures. Despite some brief downpours at the end of September/beginning of October, the harvest, which began with a delay of approx. ten days than usual and characterized by clearly lower than average volumes, it was marked by numerous warm days and increasingly colder nights.
