Tramin Unterebner Alto Adige Pinot Grigio 2022 - Wine Description
Overview
The Tramin Unterebner Alto Adige Pinot Grigio 2022 is a remarkable expression of Italy's renowned Alto Adige region. Crafted from 100% Pinot Grigio, this wine presents a harmonious balance between complexity, refinement, and freshness. At 14% ABV, it embodies a dry profile (rating 1 on the dry-sweet scale), making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate elegant white wines with a touch of richness. The natural cork closure ensures a traditional touch, and the wine's vegan and vegetarian-friendly status adds to its appeal.
Tasting Notes
This Pinot Grigio dazzles with its rich and layered character. On the nose, it opens with refined aromas of ripe pear, lightly toasted bread, and a subtle hint of melted butter. As the wine develops, complex notes of spicy tobacco and vanilla emerge, giving way to a long, clean finish marked by a distinct mineral edge. The refreshing Alpine quality of the wine adds an invigorating touch, making it ideal for a variety of occasions.
Winemaking
The 2022 vintage benefited from an early, warm spring, which accelerated vine growth. The higher-than-average temperatures in May led to earlier budding, while the summer’s heat was tempered by occasional showers, preventing vine stress and ensuring high-quality fruit. The harvest, which took place nearly two weeks ahead of schedule, brought in grapes that exhibited ideal ripeness, resulting in wines with delicate fruit notes and a vibrant, balanced acidity.
Wine Pairing
The Tramin Unterebner Alto Adige Pinot Grigio 2022 pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, particularly light seafood, grilled vegetables, and fresh salads. It also complements mild cheeses like goat cheese or mozzarella.

| Winery | The vines are grown in the Unterebner region of the Alto Adige, in a vineyard of 400 to 600 metres elevation. The vines are planted on slopes, of which 85% face southeast and 15% face south; this allows the vines to benefit from maximum sun exposure to help the fruit ripen at this altitude. The micro-climate offers extreme interplay between sunny days influenced by the Mediterranean climate and cool nights marked by the cold downslope winds from the surrounding mountains. This creates a long hang-time for the fruit, allowing a good accumulation of flavours and sugars, naturally balanced with acidity from the cool nights and refreshing winds. The vines have an average age of 10 to 30 years and are grown in calciferous gravel with loam, partially with porphyry bedrock, which imparts a distinctive mineral character to the wines. |
