Autochthonous vine of Trentino Alto Adige, it has been cultivated in the Dolomite mountains since the fifteenth century where it has adapted perfectly. Over the centuries this vine has given rise to two different biotypes due to the different shape and size of the bunch: short bunch Lagrein and long bunch Lagrein. From the selection of the best short-cluster Lagrein vineyards grown along the Adige river valley, we produce this rich and powerful red. The Lagrein vineyards are grown on the hills at an altitude of 200-400m along the Adige river valley using only simple pergolas: this guarantees excellent exposure of the bunches to the sun, guaranteeing excellent aromatic and polyphenolic ripening without the risk of burning the grapes. When the grapes reach perfect ripeness, they are harvested and selected by hand around the second week of October. The grapes are vinified according to the classic red winemaking technique, at a temperature of 26°C for 12-13 days with the addition of selected yeasts. Maturation in wood follows for 10 months in French oak barriques with 3-year aging and light toasting. Finally, another 12 months of aging between steel and bottle are required.
This Müller Thurgau Superiore comes from the tenacity of our winemakers in the Val di Cembra. The selected vineyards are located on the steep slopes of Giovo, between 650 and 750 m and well exposed to the southwest. The soils of calcareous origin give an elegant minerality well integrated with the floral scents of the grapes and the aromas generated by the yeast during the fermentation and the 6-month refinement. The grapes are harvested in late September, subjected to cold maceration for 5-8 hours and then pressed. The must, after natural cold decantation, is fermented at a low temperature. Once fermentation is complete, the wine spends the autumn and winter on its lees until it is bottled.
A vine originally from Carinthia, cultivated since the 11th century, in Trentino it has found particular diffusion in the suitable areas of Vallagarina. Celebrated in Mozart's "Don Giovanni" for its excellent qualities, it is a particularly pleasant wine for its "fruitfulness" and elegance. Classic "red" vinification with maceration and fermentation on the skins at a controlled temperature (24-26°C).
The name Pinot derives from the shape of the bunch, compact and tight, reminiscent of a pine cone. It prefers temperate climates and has found favorable soil in Trentino, in the hilly areas of Faedo and Pressano. Traditional "red" vinification with maceration on the skins for 4-5 days, fermentation at controlled temperature (25°C) and aging in wood for 6-8 months.
Tm2 of the Pistis Sophia winery is a macerated white wine produced with Pergolone, Malvasia and Moscato grapes. Spontaneous fermentation in steel where maceration proceeds for 6 days, followed by aging in steel for 8 months, all without decanting and without added sulphites.
