ORIGIN

TERROIR

We are in the Trento DOC area, home to renowned bubbles, which stands out for elegant wines that express a unique concept of territoriality. The success and uniqueness of the Trento DOC sparkling wine is due precisely to the characteristics of the territory: the combination of climate, different altitudes, soils and Trentino savoir faire make Trento DOC not just a simple sparkling wine, but a highly prized mountain sparkling wine, increasingly recognized and awarded.

The Trentino area, although small, is covered by 10,000 hectares of vines with a percentage of grapes destined for the production of sparkling wine equal to 8% and a total production of 7 million bottles a year. The vines can enjoy different climates: we pass from a mountain microclimate to the milder one of Garda. Factors such as the altitude of the vineyard and the temperature range play an important role in the ripening of the grapes, influencing the organoleptic characteristics of the wines. The varieties grown for the Trento DOC sparkling wine are Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The area of organic vineyards in Trentino is constantly increasing, a natural consequence of the attention and responsibility of sparkling wine producers towards the wholesomeness of the products.

WINERY

The farm and distillery of Francesco and Alessandro Poli is located in the hills surrounding the lakes of Santa Massenza and Toblino.

The vineyards have been grown organically since the end of the 1990s, in respect of a rich soil such as that of Santa Massenza.

In the vineyards around the town, red grape varieties such as Schiava, Rebo, Lagrein and Cabernet Sauvignon are grown, while in Naran, vines resistant to vine diseases have been planted, such as Bronner and Solaris, which do not require pesticide treatments. The whole production is characterized by great research and quality. The cellar is also renowned for its nosiola-based wines, a native Trentino white berried variety. From the pomace of Trentino's Vino Santo, a very special grappa is obtained in the distillery which is aged for more than 5 years.
