NOTES BY OUR SOMMELIERS

👁 of a beautiful bright golden yellow;

👃🏻 the nose is broad and complex with typical notes of peach and apricot jam;

👄 on the palate it is greedy, pleasantly sweet, balanced and with a long persistence.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS

Goldtraminer is a passito wine, which, according to the concordance rule, it pairs well with desserts. Perfect to accompany pastry products, especially dry, but also excellent for tastings of cheeses with mustards and honey.

 

WINE-MAKING AND REFINEMENT

This Passito comes from a late harvest, done in early November, strictly manual, with a careful selection in the vineyard of the best grapes. The grapes are harvested late to obtain a drying on the plant, which leads to a concentration of aromas and sugars. The wine ages for 36 months in oak barrels, before being bottled and, after a short rest in the bottle, released for sale. We are in the presence of an important wine, sweet but never cloying, made with love for over 40 years as a family gem.

 

YOU WILL LOVE IT FOR...

its complexity, sweetness and softness.

 

ORIGIN

TERROIR

The area of origin is Trento DOC, homeland of renowned sparkling wines, distinguished by elegant wines that express a unique concept of territoriality. The success and uniqueness of Trento DOC sparkling wine is due precisely to the characteristics of its territory of origin: indeed, the combination of climate, different altitudes, soil and Trentino "savoir faire" make Trento DOC not just a simple sparkling wine, rather an increasingly recognised and awarded mountain sparkling wine. 

Despite its small size, Trentino is covered by 10,000 hectares of vines, with 8% of grapes destined for sparkling wine production and a total production of 7 million bottles per year. The vines flourish in different climates: it is possible to go from a mountain microclimate to the milder climate of Lake Garda. 

Factors such as the altitude of the vineyard and the temperature range play an important role in the ripening of the grapes, influencing the organoleptic characteristics of the wines. The varieties grown for Trento DOC sparkling wine are chardonnay and pinot noir.
Finally, the area of organic vineyards in Trentino is constantly increasing, as a natural consequence of the attention and responsibility of the sparkling wine producers towards the original terroir.

WINERY

Pravis is a winery founded in the Trento DOC area by three friends, three winemakers who share the passion for viticulture and for the Trentino region. The winery was founded forty years ago; it is located in Lasino, in the province of Trento, in a rural landscape of medieval castles, lakes and mountains. 

Pravis is now in its second generation, to whom the passion for wine and care for the land has been passed on.
The winery has been carved into the rock, perfectly integrated into the surrounding environment; the vineyards enjoy an alpine climate, mitigated by the currents of the Ora del Garda.
The farm is a member of the FIVi (Federazione Italiana Vignaioli Indipendenti - Italian Federation of Independent Winegrowers) and has carried out an important work of recovery of some autochthonous varieties of Trentino, saving from the risk of extinction Nosiola, Negrara and Gropello di Revò, a rare vine of Val di Non. The production is varied: from Nosiola to Negrara, from Müller-Thurgau to Kerner, from Trento DOC to grappa.
