Wine description

With an ancient winemaking tradition, unique microclimates, and Roman, German, and Austrian heritage, Trentino remains Italy’s best kept secret. A mountainous zone squeezed between the borders of Austria and Switzerland, Trentino is one of Europe’s oldest wine-growing sites, predating 15 BC.

Tasting notes

Light ruby red color. The bouquet on thr nose is typical of the grape variety and very elegant, with notes of forest berries, blackcurrant, cherry, and toasty sensations, like toasted almond and cured meat. On the palate it is dry, fresh, velvety, with delicate tannins and a lingering finish.

Food pairing

Ideal with pasta, risotto and poultry.
