Tramonto

May 19, 2016 by Corey Ameele

TramontoTramonto

Finger Lakes
Estate Grown & Bottled

A hearty, dry, oak-aged red with berry notes and a touch of pepperiness, Tramonto (“sunset” in Italian) was created by our founder, Andrew Colaruotolo, in 1986 in fond remembrance of the wines of his youth in Gaeta, Italy.    

Viticulture

Grapes.  Cabernet Sauvignon, DeChaunac and Cabernet Franc

Appellation. Finger Lakes

Viticulture notes.  The grapes used in the production of this wine are relatively cold-tolerant, making them suitable for the northern Finger Lakes region.   

Winemaking

Winemaker.  Matt Cassavaugh

Fermentation. Depending on the component wine, either in bins or in stainless steel tanks at a cool temperature.

Alcohol by volume. 12.5%

Residual sugar. 0.5%

IRF scale.  Dry

Aging. In oak barrels.

Acidity.  pH 3.4, TA 6.4 g/L

Bottle volumes. 750mL

Bottling dates.  April 20, 2017

Production. 463 cases

Vegan.  Yes

Wine series.  Vineyard 

TTB ID.  17019-001-000423

UPC.  0-89800-00623-8

Year first produced:  1979

Winemaking notes. We ferment each of Tramonto’s component wines separately and at cool temperatures, and oak-age them only lightly, to accentuate the fruit aromas and flavors in the wine. 

Enjoying our Tramonto

Availability. 

  • At our winery in Fairport
  • At selected wine and spirits stores and restaurants in New York state
  • At CasaLarga.com for direct shipment to residences and workplaces in 37 states

Aging: Store at cool temperature (about 55º) and out of direct sunlight.  This wine, like most lightly oaked and tannic red wines, was produced to be enjoyed while relatively young, i.e. within roughly 2 years of bottling.

Serving temperature:  At cool room temperature (about 60-65º). 

Tasting notes.  Tramonto is a smooth, dry, oak-aged red wine with cherry notes and a touch of pepperiness.

Pairing suggestions.  Perfect with a wide range of Italian cuisine, especially pasta with tomato-based sauces and light poultry, pork and fish dishes.
