Sauvignon

With this offering, Tramin has crafted an elegant 100% Sauvignon Blanc wine from two historic and renowned winemaking districts in the Alto Adige region, Tramin and Montan. Sipping this expressive, terroir-driven wine is the next best thing to frolicking in the rolling green meadows of the majestic Dolomite landscape.

Tasting Notes

Lemon-green in color, this wine exhibits racy aromas of grapefruits, melons and cut grass, in addition to classic notes of gooseberries. This succulent Sauvignon is light-bodied and balanced on the palate.

Food Pairing

This wine is a fine match for oysters on the half-shell, fresh crab salad and grilled white fish.
