Wines from Trentino-Alto Adige

The Moscato Rosa vine is a very ancient vine, of probable Greek origins which, passing through Sicily, arrived in Trentino in the mid-nineteenth century. The name seems to derive more from the primary aroma of rose that characterizes this aromatic vine, than from the color of the berry, which is actually bluish-black. Moscato Rosa is very delicate to cultivate as it is subject to various problems in flowering and ripening which greatly reduce its production capacity. For all these reasons, as well as being noble, it is also a precious wine, also due to its great ability to accumulate large quantities of sugar. This wine is obtained from small vineyards located on the alluvial fan of the town of Pressano, north of Trento, at about 250-300 metres, facing south-southwest on clayey-limestone soils and in a well-ventilated area to avoid health problems and allow the grapes the achievement of a perfect level of aromatic and sugar ripening. The grapes are harvested by hand very late after a natural drying on the vine and, after destemming, are subjected to traditional vinification with the addition of selected yeasts at a temperature of 22-24°C for 6-8 days. Then with the use of cold (5°C), the fermentation process is naturally blocked with the consequent maintenance of the desired residual sugar. It then continues with the collection of only flower wine without pressing of the pomace. This is followed by conservation in steel for a few months, always at a low temperature to preserve the aromas of this elegant wine

This wine comes from a perfect marriage between the two most important and renowned red grape varieties of Trentino: Teroldego (50%) and Lagrein (50%). Teroldego found its cradle in Piana Rotaliana which, due to its geological and climatic uniqueness, gives the "prince of Trentino" all the essential characteristics to obtain a wine with ripe fruitiness and powerful structure. Lagrein found its way along the hills above the Adige river where, benefiting from rockier and well-draining soils, it expresses itself with a fragrant aromatic profile and a delicate body that tames the tannic vehemence of Teroldego. The historical form of cultivation of these two Trentino vines called "pergola", in its "simple" form for the Lagrein and in the "double" form for the Teroldego, favors excellent exposure of the bunches to the sun guaranteeing excellent ripening without risk of burns of the grapes. The Teroldego 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. The Lagrein grapes are instead fermented at a temperature of 24°C for 8 days with the addition of selected yeasts. Then half aliquot of the two wines ages for 6 months in French oak barriques with a 3-year seasoning and light toasting, in order to respect their rich fruitiness. Another 12 months of aging between steel and bottle are then required.

The Chardonnay Riserva comes from a selection of the best vineyards grown on the slopes of the Trentino mountains between 250 and 500 m above sea level. The preferred soils are of alluvial and draining origin. The grapes are harvested well ripe and characterized by a golden yellow colour, an indication of high aromatic richness. The skilful blending of wines obtained from vineyards located at various altitudes and with different exposures results in a wine that is ripe and rich but also fresh and fragrant. The grapes are harvested in September, partly subjected to cold maceration to increase the extraction of aromas and subsequently subjected to soft pressing. The must is fermented with the addition of selected yeasts, half in steel and half in lightly toasted French oak. The wines mature for 8 months in wood and 4 months in steel. The part that ages in barrique also carries out the malolactic fermentation and repeated batonage (resuspension of the fermentation yeasts) is carried out. Finally, 3-4 months of aging in the bottle follow.

Trentino Marzemino Superiore is born from the best vineyards of the hills of Ala where the Adige in its passage has enriched the soils created by the glaciers that have carved the dolomitic rocks of the Pre-Alps. In this wine the primitive varietal notes are united in an indissoluble union with the more evolved hints of fermentation processes. Once the perfect ripening of the grapes has been verified in the vineyard, a first fraction of the bunches is handpicked for drying in a room at controlled temperature and humidity. During this period, which lasts about 70 days, the grapes ripen and evolve, releasing unexpected aromas and velvety sensations. At the end of the cycle, the bunches are destemmed, crushed and the must obtained is left to ferment in steel at a controlled temperature of 25 - 28°C with selected yeasts for this type of wine. The remaining portion of grapes is harvested as late as possible compatibly with the climatic evolution of the season and the state of health. Also in this case the grapes are destemmed and left to ferment in stainless steel containers at a strictly controlled temperature of 25-28°C by inoculating specific selected yeasts. Once the fermentations are complete, the two batches are left to rest in steel containers awaiting their assembly and maturation in the bottle

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.

The Teroldego vine is a native variety of Trentino and finds its ideal development environment in the Piana Rotaliana. The word "Teroldego" seems to derive from "Tiroler Gold" (gold of Tyrol), the name by which this wine was indicated at the Court of Vienna during the Austro-Hungarian empire; from this denomination “Tiroldico” would later derive and later, Teroldego. Among the Trentino red wines it is the most renowned, so much so that it is defined as the "prince wine of Trentino". The Riserva di Teroldego is produced only in great vintages from carefully selected grapes by hand in the most suitable areas of the Piana Rotaliana: "Fron", "Rauti", "Camorzi" and "Sottodossi". The grapes are pressed with separation of the stems. The seeds are partially removed, followed by maceration on the skins with frequent pumping over and fermentation at a controlled temperature of around 25°C for 12-13 days. Minimum 24 months of maturation, of which 12 in precious oak wood (Allier and Troncais) followed by refinement in the bottle.

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 “pure” Chardonnay, just like its name.

It has gold in its name - Gold - and the powerful charge of a modern wine - Traminer - decidedly "irreverent", because it is the fruit of an absolutely innovative grape variety, obtained from the crossing of Traminer vine flowers with those of Tuscan Trebbiano. A new variety created in the mid-1950s by Rebo Rigotti, geneticist from Trentino, one of the most brilliant viticultural researchers at international level. Precious vines, rare precisely because they are destined for targeted harvests and an equally particular wine. Like the one that ripens on the basaltic slope of Reviano, the sunny side of the Destra Adige, above Isera (Trento). The care in cultivation and vinification is maximum in order to offer an absolutely original, curious and yet intriguing wine. Gold in its sunny, brilliant color, with almost iridescent luminous reflections.
