Nose

Intensely aromatic, exactly as the grape promises: rose petal and yellow peach lead, with candied pear and a lift of apricot behind. Cantina Puiatti's own note calls out peach, candied pear and roses, and Vivino's 135 reviewers settle on rosebud and yellow peach. With no oak and four months on the lees in steel, the perfume is left clean and unmasked.

Palate

Light-bodied and dry, with the tangy freshness the producer describes as taut and perfectly dry. The fruit reads as fresh stone fruit and pear rather than anything sweet, while the gravel and iron-rich red clay at Zuccole lend a clean, saline edge. Alcohol is gentle at 12.5%.

Finish

The close is crisp and clean rather than long, its lees-built texture carrying a tangy lift of rosebud and citrus before it refreshes away.

Overall

An honest, well-made aromatic white from the Isonzo plain that Vivino drinkers rate a solid 3.6 across 135 reviews, best enjoyed within two to three years of the vintage. It sits at the accessible end of Puiatti's range, an everyday Friuli DOP for spice and seafood rather than a wine to cellar.

Wine fit score

How Puiatti Traminer Aromatico scores for food, value and everyday drinking

Strong on food versatility and everyday appeal, modest on cellaring: a light, dry, aromatic white priced for the weeknight table rather than the special occasion.

Best intro to this style 8.4/10

Classic, fruit-forward varietal expression of an aromatic grape, dry but perfumed and easy to like; an ideal first Traminer.

Best with food 8.2/10

Aromatic, dry, high-freshness white that bridges spice, seafood and pork; very versatile, limited only by a delicate body. Aromatic-white band, scored toward the top for breadth.

Best everyday bottle 8.2/10

Inverse of its low cellar score: light, dry, sub-16 GBP and food-flexible, made for the weeknight table.

Best value 6.5/10

Lowest UK listing about 14.30 GBP for a hand-harvested Friuli DOP aromatic white; fair rather than a bargain at the category mid-point. price_aggregate empty, banded editorially.

Scoring is rule-based and deterministic. The model and weightings are documented in our editorial methodology.

The disciplinare, the place, the label

Friuli DOP and the Isonzo plain behind this Traminer

Grown at Zuccole in Romans d'Isonzo on the gravelly, iron-oxide red clay of the Isonzo plain, the wine carries the broad Friuli DOP rather than a single-vineyard cru, which keeps it accessibly priced.

01

DOC, DOCG, IGT: what the badges mean

Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.

Friuli/Friuli Venezia Giulia is in the DOC tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.

Direction

Drivers
3 up / 2 down
Main factor
Broad Friuli DOP, not a single-vineyard cru
  1. 01

    Broad Friuli DOP, not a single-vineyard cru

    Cost down

    Bottled under the regional Friuli DOP rather than a named Isonzo cru, which holds the UK price around 14 to 16 GBP instead of single-vineyard money.

  2. 02

    Hand-harvest in mid-September

    Cost up

    Puiatti picks the Traminer by hand in the second ten days of September, and manual picking costs more than machine harvest.

  3. 03

    Four months on the lees in steel

    Cost up

    The wine rests four months on its lees in stainless steel before bottling, tying up tank time and cellar space that feed into the price.

  4. 04

    No oak programme

    Cost down

    There is no barrel ageing, so no cost of buying or replacing oak, one reason this aromatic white stays near 15 GBP.

  5. 05

    UK duty and VAT

    Cost up

    At 12.5% ABV the still-wine duty is 2.67 GBP a bottle, and 20% VAT adds roughly 2.50 GBP more on a 15 GBP bottle before the merchant's margin.

Perfect Pairings

Dishes that complement this wine

Food Pairing

Aromatic Traminer at the table: spice, seafood and pork

The rosebud-and-peach perfume bridges fragrant Thai and Chinese spice, while a tangy, dry palate cuts fried seafood and crisp pork. Vivino drinkers most often pair it with pork, poultry and rich fish.

Aromatic bridge Strong match

Fragrant Thai and Southeast Asian spice

Traminer's rosebud and lychee perfume meets the aromatic heat of Thai cooking on its own terms, while a dry, light body keeps it clear of any clash with chilli. The bridge here is aroma, not residual sugar.

Try with: Chicken pad thai · Green curry · Satay · More pairings →

Fat cutting Strong match

Sticky pork and salt-and-pepper seafood

Tangy acidity slices through crisp pork fat and fried batter, and the aromatic lift stands up to ginger, garlic and five-spice. Aroma plus acidity is what makes it work where a neutral white would vanish.

Try with: Crispy pork belly · Salt and pepper prawns · Sweet and sour pork · More pairings →

Salt balance Good match

Raw and tempura seafood

A light body and saline freshness flatter delicate raw fish, while the perfume gives tempura batter a fragrant counterpoint. Serve it well chilled so the acidity stays crisp against the salt.

Try with: Sashimi · Nigiri Sushi · Prawn Tempura · More pairings →

Acidity matching Good match

Shellfish, salmon and aperitivo

A fresh, dry attack and gentle 12.5% alcohol make this a natural aperitivo and a clean match for crab and richer fish such as salmon. The acidity keeps oily flesh lively rather than heavy.

Try with: Crab · Salmon · Oysters · More pairings →

Body matching Good match

Roast pork and poultry

Vivino drinkers most often reach for pork and poultry, and the wine's aromatic weight matches white meat without overpowering it. Best with simply roasted dishes rather than heavily sauced ones.

Try with: Roast pork · Pulled pork · Pork belly · More pairings →

Avoid Clash

Tannic red meat and heavy char

A light, unoaked aromatic white has no tannin or weight to stand against chargrilled steak or a long red-meat braise; the wine simply disappears. Keep it away from heavily tannic, smoky and bitter plates.

Skip with: Chargrilled steak · Braised beef · Lamb shank · Pairing guide →

Drinking + cellar

A drink-now Friuli white, not a cellar bottle

There is no oak and no ageing mandate here; the appeal is fresh aromatics. Buy it for the next two to three years rather than the cellar.

Drinking window
2026 → 2028

Best in the years above; holds without falling over either side.

Decanting
0

A short splash decant softens the first-pour edge and opens the aromatics.

Cellar potential
Low

Unoaked, no ageing mandate under Friuli DOP, light and built for freshness; drink within two to three years, not a cellar wine.

Common Questions

It is 100% Traminer Aromatico, the aromatic clone of Gewurztraminer, grown by Cantina Puiatti at Zuccole in Romans d'Isonzo and bottled as Friuli DOP.

Dry. Despite a perfumed rosebud-and-peach nose, the palate finishes taut, tangy and perfectly dry at 12.5% alcohol.

Aromatic rose petal, yellow peach, candied pear and apricot lead to a fresh, clean, light-bodied palate. Vivino drinkers rate it 3.6 across 135 reviews.

Its aromatic lift suits spiced Thai and Chinese dishes, fried and raw seafood, roast pork and soft cheese, and it also works as an aperitivo.

Serve it well chilled at 10 to 12 C, and drink within two to three years of the vintage to catch the aromatics at their freshest.

Current UK listings cover the 2024 and 2025 vintages, typically around 14 to 16 GBP a bottle from independent merchants.
