Trentino

Italian wines from Trentino

In northern Italy, between the Dolomites and Lake Garda lies the Trentino wine region. Although officially called Trentino-Alto Adige, they are actually two separate wine regions. Trentino primarily produces fresh, fruity white wines from the Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio grapes. But don't forget the red wine gems either. The Marzemino and Teroldego grapes thrive in this mountainous region, resulting in high-quality red wines.

The mountainous Trentino

The mountainous region provides the necessary protection from the elements in the valleys. And the mountain winds ensure sufficient cooling. The temperature differences between day and night are significant, allowing the grapes to ripen evenly and develop beautiful acidity and aromas. The environment and its climatic characteristics have led to the cultivation of many different grape varieties and, consequently, the production of diverse wines. Quality has always been a priority and is therefore very high. Over the past decade, the wine-growing region has changed significantly, favoring white varieties, which have been the primary focus in recent years.

Typical grape varieties of Trentino

The region is vast, and thanks to its accessible climate, it offers ample space for a wide variety of grape varieties. We find the well-known Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Riesling, and Pinot Blanc, as well as the typical Trentino grapes Marzemino, Teroldego, Rebo, and Nosiola. Teroldego is an interesting grape variety and produces powerful wines. It is primarily grown in the Trentino valley on gravelly soils. Most wineries age this grape in oak, giving the wine depth, complexity, and a full flavor. The Rebo grape, a cross between Teroldego and Merlot, produces robust red wines. Nosiola is used in sweet wines and is much less well-known.

The winery adheres to traditions and operates with great respect for nature. Girelle also knows better than anyone how to capitalize on Trentino's excellent climate. The Cembra Pinot Nero Trentino, for example, is an impressive wine with excellent value. The lush aromas and flavors of blueberry, raspberry, and cherry are clearly discernible. Enjoy it slightly chilled; this allows the aromas to truly shine. A true hero from beautiful Trentino.
