This wine is produced from very carefully selected grapes in our oldest vineyards, where the grapes are usually thinned out to reduce the production to 8-9 tons per hectare. Harvested in small crates, the soft pressing and the temperature control during fermentation mean that the grapes are cared for following the old traditional way.
This wine is in continuous evolution and has a great aging potential.
The yearly production of this selection is of about 90.000 bottles.
Tralivio is available in (copyrighted) Sartarelli bottles of 750 ml, in borgognotta bottles of 375 ml as well as in borgognotta magnum bottles of 1,5 liter with an elegant gift box.

It is also very good with mushrooms, truffles and medium mature cheeses.
