Unique vinification for Castel Firmian Riserva Teroldego Rotaliano
Castel Firmian is located in Trentino, a beautiful wine region in northern Italy. The winery is named after the historic Castello di Firmiano, an imposing castle that towers over the vineyards.

Castel Firmian's winemakers cherish the region's rich winemaking history and utilize modern techniques to produce wines that reflect the essence of the land and terroir.
Only the very best and ripest Teroldego grapes are carefully harvested. This is followed by traditional pulp fermentation in the winery, where the grapes are fermented at a controlled temperature of 25-27 degrees Celsius. This slow and careful fermentation ensures optimal extraction of color, aromas, and flavors from the grapes. After fermentation, the wine is aged for an impressive 24 months in oak barrels. A special aspect of the aging process is that at least 12 months are spent in precious Troncais or Allier barrels. These barrels, sourced from prestigious French oak forests, add subtle nuances of vanilla, spice, and toast to the wine, further enriching the taste experience.
