Description
Still red wine from Trentino-Alto Adige, 13% ABV, produced by Cavit. 100% Teroldego, 2022 vintage. A wine that embodies the essence of Teroldego, a native grape of the Piana Rotaliana. The aroma is clean, distinctly fruity, with hints of raspberry, blackberry, and berries initially; as it ages, the bouquet develops with new sensations, becoming ethereal, very broad, and at the same time distinctive. An intense ruby red color, with pronounced purple hues when young. On the palate, it reveals balanced tannins, accompanied by a full, sustained texture. The flavor is velvety, enveloping, full-bodied, and austere.

| Story | The Teroldego grape is probably the oldest quality variety grown in Trentino. It has been mentioned as far back as the 15th century, although its etymological origin remains uncertain. Some believe it derives from "Tiroler Gold" — the Gold of Tyrol — a reference to its intrinsic quality, which led Cesare Battisti to call it the "prince of Trentino wines". Its producers were the first, in 1948, to establish a Consortium for the Protection of Teroldego Rotaliano, and again the first, in 1970, to obtain official recognition of the Denominazione di Origine Controllata. |
