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.

Story | Chardonnay is one of the best-known white grape varieties in the world. It is widely grown in Trentino, covering almost the entire vineyard environment and having in fact found an ideal environment for its needs, albeit with different results depending on the different growing areas. Introduced towards the end of the 19th century by the Istituto Enologico di San Michele all'Adige, it now occupies about a third of the entire Trentino vineyard. |
Origin | Valle dei Laghi valley, between the mountains at the foot of the Dolomites, not far from Lake Garda |
Climate | The climate is sub-Mediterranean and is characterized by a constant breeze (called Ora del Garda), making it an ideal environment for producing wines of considerable finesse and elegance. Altitude: 250 m. a.s.l. |
Harvest | Hand-picked |
Wine making | After the grapes were destalked and crushed, the must remained in contact with the skins for 10 hours at a temperature of 10 °C to encourage extraction of the primary aromas. |
Aging | Fermentation took place entirely in light toasted barriques, one-third in new oak and two-third in second and third passage, where the wine was left to develop for 6 months before returning to stainless steel tanks for a couple of weeks. After the bottling, the wine was left to develop in the bottle for around a year. |
