Description
Red wine, dry and slightly tannic, with prune and cherry aromas and light spicy scents. It is born in a soil that comes from the discharge of the ancient glacier. Harvested in the first days of October, it ferments in steel and, after a warm post-fermentative maceration, it is refined in vats.

The story began to take shape in 2001, with the planting of the first three hectares of vineyard in the municipality of Saint-Christophe, just outside Aosta. The first varieties grown were Chardonnay, Syrah, and the native Cornalin. In just a few years, the estate expanded its vineyard surface and selected new, highly suited plots, where Muscat Blanc, Pinot Gris, and additional parcels of Syrah were also introduced.
A turning point came in 2017, when Rosset Terroir ventured beyond 900 meters above sea level, in the village of Villeneuve. On particularly steep slopes, in a context of heroic viticulture, the cultivation of the traditional Petite Arvine grape variety comes to life, from which the wineryās flagship wine is born: the Sopraquota 900, awarded in 2021 as Italyās Best White Wine by Gambero Rosso ās Vini dāItalia guide and included in James Sucklingās Top 100 World Wines in 2024.
Today, Rosset Terroir manages around 13 hectares of vineyards and produces approximately 50,000 bottles per year, carefully selecting the regionās most promising plots and combining the expertise of seasoned technicians with modern, functional facilities. Read more
