| Vendor | Cavit |
| Origin | Well-exposed, sunny hillsides of Roveré della Luna and the Adige Valley north of Trento |
| Climate | The climate of this area is sub-continental, with rather harsh and often snowy winters and hot summers, but with large temperature ranges between day and night, which favour the production of very aromatic wines with very fresh aromas and flavours. Altitude: 250-400 m. a.s.l. |
| Soil composition | The vineyards of Roverè della Luna are located on an ancient conoid, with brown, shallow soils, rich in skeleton with a frank-sandy matrix; whereas the vineyards of the upper Valle dell'Adige are located on deposits of glacial origin (moraines and conoids), with sandstone, siltstone, marl, limestone and dolomite: medium-deep soils, with a frank-sandy texture, rich in stones and pebbles. |
| Yield per hectare | 60-65 hl |
| Harvest | The perfectly ripe, hand-picked grapes are destemmed and crushed. |
| Fermentation temperature | Maximum 20 °C. |
| Wine making | The must thus obtained remains in contact with the skins for a short time at a temperature of 5-6°C in order to extract the aromas. Pressing is carried out with particular care, avoiding excessive extraction of colour, even though the must at this stage may take on a typical coppery colour that spontaneously disappears during alcoholic fermentation, taking on golden yellow hues with faint greenish reflections. |
| Aging | After fermentation, conducted in stainless steel at a temperature not exceeding 20°C, followed by ageing in tanks for 4-5 months before bottling. |
| Total acidity | 5.2 gr/L |
| Residual sugar | 5.0 gr/L |
| Dry extract | 23.0 gr/L |
