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.

The Pinot Grigio variety has been cultivated for a long time in the Adige Valley, where it is also known under the name of Ruländer. The shape of the bunches and their "copper gray" color reveal its close relationship with the Pinot Noir from which it seems to derive. It prefers soils with moderate fertility both on the valley floor and on low hills. Pinot Grigio RISERVA comes from grapes grown in the vineyards of one of the most classic and suitable areas for this variety: called "Zablani", it is located north-east of the town of Mezzocorona and is characterized by well-drained alluvial soil, very similar to that of the adjacent classic area of Teroldego. The grapes are harvested by hand and delivered within a few hours to the cellar, where they are selected, immediately pressed and sent to the cold maceration and soft pressing stage. The alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature (16-18° C) can last between 12 and 15 days. More precisely, part of the Pinot Grigio is fermented in steel (40%) while the remaining 60% is fermented in barrique. After fermentation, the wine remains in barriques for 6-8 months, during which periodic "batonage" operations are performed (resuspension of the yeast deposits). Between the 10th and 11th month, the wine fermented in steel and the wine fermented in wood are assembled, thus obtaining a product with the typical notes of vanilla and ripeness, but also with the freshness and fragrance typical of Pinot Trentino grey.

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.
