Tramin Stoan

Stoan Alto Adige DOC bottle image

Wine Description

The name of this exotic Alto Adige blend refers to the stony soil in which the grapes are grown, which in local German dialect is referred to as "stoan." This aromatic white wine is made from Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon Blanc and Gewürztraminer grapes which are blended together and fermented in large oak barrels before being refined an additional seven months before bottling.

Acclaim
“A vibrant white that packs a lot in a svelte and finely-knit form. Appealing notes of ripe green melon, apricot and kiwi fruit are accented by hints of pink grapefruit sorbet, pickled ginger and verbena. A streak of stony mineral along with another kick of fruit chimes in and lingers on the finish. Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Pinot Bianco and Gewürztraminer.”
— Wine Spectator, Nov 2021
SILVER

“Inviting aromas of lychee, passion fruit, sage and herbaceous mint lead to a palate of luscious white stone fruit.”
— Decanter World Wine Awards, Jul 2021
