De Vigili

The De Vigili family comes from a long history of winemaking: their ancestor Ottavio in the early 19th century used to brand barrels with his initials. The business was revitalized by the then twenty-three-year-old Francesco De Vigili, who in 2015 revived the family brand, with just five hectares and very few bottles produced.

From the beginning, the ideas were clear: the land is cultivated without synthetic products and chemical herbicides, and in the cellar, they seek to respect the characteristics of the quintessential Trentino native grape variety: Teroldego Rotaliano.

De Vigili

The vineyards are located in two very important areas in the Teroldego Rotaliano zone: Pasquari and Entichiari, which can be traced back to the most historical area, known as the Teroldego area, with records dating back to the late 15th century. These are vineyards located in the best part of Campo Rotaliano, where the old bed of the Noce river was diverted in the 19th century.

Experimentation is the soul of De Vigili in the cellar: different containers and capacities, variable maceration durations, with or without stems... these are just some of the aspects that change every year to produce the best wines, always reflecting the vintage and expressing their idea of Dolomite wine.

Trentino Alto Adige

Trentino Alto Adige is a region entirely mountainous and divided into the autonomous provinces of Trento and Bolzano, whose border marks a linguistic and administrative watershed.

The attention of wineries and heroic viticulture ensures a consistently high quality level of wines, and particularly the best results are achieved with grapes that thrive in cold climates, such as Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, which here express their varietal characteristics at their best. In addition to the many international varieties, the region also boasts an interesting heritage of native grapes, including Teroldego, Schiava, and Lagrein.

Although it would be difficult to draw a morphological boundary between the two areas geographically, ethnic and linguistic differences on one hand and pedoclimatic differences on the other have also led, over the centuries, to a provincial characterization of wine production.

Both areas, however, share an excellent wine production, thanks also to the geographic position and favorable climatic conditions along the Adige Valley and on the slopes of the mountains that line it, as well as in the flat and hilly areas around Trento and Bolzano.

Piana Rotaliana

We are in the territory of Trento DOC, which is known for its elegant wines that express a unique sense of terroir. The success of this sparkling wine is precisely due to the characteristics of the territory: the combination of climate, different altitudes, soils, and Trentino savoir-faire is unique.

Another territorial excellence is Teroldego, which achieves excellent results only in the Piana Rotaliana: a strip of plain surrounded by the Dolomites. Here, perfect conditions are created: the rocky walls of the mountains protect the vines from the cold winds coming from the North, while they accumulate warmth that they release onto the vineyards. The breezes coming down from the Val di Non, on the other hand, dry the plants, keeping the vegetation healthy.

Of the Piana Rotaliana, Mario Soldati writes: "Here are all the Teroldego vineyards. Here, in the ancient villages of Mezzocorona and Mezzolombardo, there are still the old cellars where this sublime wine is made." A wine that has "a characteristic flavor, recognizable among thousands."
In the heart of Trentino, Trento DOC shines for its elegance, expressing a unique territorial identity thanks to the combination of climate, altitudes, and Trentino soils.
