Cantina Tramin was founded in 1898 and has 310 member winegrowers who follow its strict directives on the cultivation of the vines. The vineyards are an integral part of the enchanting and picturesque landscape of the Alto-Adige region of Northern Italy and cover 260 hectares situated on the sunny slopes of the region at altitudes ranging from 250 to 850 metres above sea level. In 2011, Cantina Tramin gained the "Double Stella" award. This is given to a winery for achieving the prestigious "3 Bicchieri" 20 times and is awarded by the Gambero Rosso.

Südtirol/Alto Adige is the dynamic winegrowing region at the northern end of Italy that combines a brisk Alpine climate, mountain viticulture and complex geology with the brilliance of Mediterranean sunshine. At Cantina Tramin the vineyards are cared for by the many hands of the 300 small growers whose heritage it is to coax the best out of their grapes, culminating in wines which reflect the uniqueness of the area.

Pinot Nero is ruby in colour with light garnet hues. Its seducing scent recalls forest fruits, plums, raspberries and cherries and it is characterised by a juicy and fruit. It is velvety soft and a fresh acidity on the palate is framed by fine -grained tannins and a slight hint of floral notes.
