Monogramma is an approach: we wait. Whilst standard Traminer is harvested at the usual stage of ripeness, Mario Pojer and Fiorentino Sandri leave their best plots on the vine for a further 10 to 12 days. What happens during this time is not overripeness – ; it is a concentration, a densification of the aromas, a slow transformation of fresh fruit into something more complex. Gewürztraminer is, in any case, one of the most expressive grape varieties in the world. Normally: rose, peach, lychee, elderflower – — explosive, direct, immediate. In the Spätlese selection from the plots in Faedo/Coveli (300 m) and Cembra (450 m), an additional dimension emerges: tropical fruit, spices, a deep, rich texture that the wine develops through the late harvest. The house method remains the same: washing the grapes, pressing in a controlled atmosphere without oxygen. What ends up in the glass is solely a reflection of the place and the time.

Bright straw yellow with brilliant gold highlights. The bouquet is floral, aromatic, tropical and spicy – with a depth that the standard Traminer does not achieve. On the palate, it is full of character and rich, with a soft final thanks to the slight residual sugar, which is not just sweetness – but rather structural richness. Harmonious and delicately herbaceous in the long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Traminer Aromatico Monogramma entices from the glass with candied lime, mint, sweet spice, and crushed green apples. Noticeably sweet in style, it offers zesty acidity to balance as ripe orchard fruits cascade throughout. It finishes with chewy depth and a confectionery feel, yet ultimately remains clean." Vinous
