Description
Late-harvest white passito from Trentino-Alto Adige, 11.5% ABV, produced by Cavit. Blend: Nosiola, Riesling, Sauvignon, and Gewürztraminer Aromatico. 0.50 L bottle, 2022 vintage. A wine born from the expert blend of noble grapes, harvested late to enhance their sweetness and aromatic complexity. The heavily botrytized grapes are harvested and selected by hand in late autumn. After gentle pressing, the must, particularly rich in sugars, is fermented and then aged in a small stainless steel tank. On the nose, it releases intense and refined aromas of dried apricot, peach in syrup, honey, and cotton candy. A deep golden yellow color with light, luminous highlights. On the palate, it is enveloping, rich in aromas, and has a delightful sweetness, with a fresh and persistent finish.

The image that best represents Cavit, a large co-operative composed of a large number of small wineries, is that of the vine that produces healthy grapes only if the roots and the other parts of the plant all perform their roles properly.
Created in 1950 to meet the needs of the winegrowers in the area to offer the very best quality and market their wines in a modern way, today Cavit represents over 4,500 winegrowers who are members of 11 cellars and 65% of the wine production in Trentino (around 5,700 ha). Cavit harvests, examines and selects its raw materials from the best produce of the cooperative member cellars, which undergoes strict controls at every stage: from refining to bottling.
Cavit today is one of the major companies in the wine business, operating successfully at national and international level.The headquarters in Ravina, where the production and logistics facilities are also located, house the Wine Cellar, Sparkling Wine Cellar and Wine Shop. Cavit also owns Maso Toresella, used for corporate entertaining, on Lake Toblino.
