Nerofino

Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT
Production area Teroldego found its perfect terroir in the Piana Rotaliana area: this soil, for its unique geological and climate characteristics, gives the "prince of Trentino" all the elements to obtain a well-structured and rich wine.
Grapes Teroldego e Lagrein
Vinification Teroldego grapes are vinified according to the classic red vinification process, at a temperature of 78°F for several days with selected yeasts. Lagrein grapes ferment at 75°F for some days with addition of selected yeasts. The half part of the final wine ages for some months in 3 years aged and lightly toasted French oak barrels, in order to respect its rich fruitiness. It is then needed around 12 months of aging in steel and bottle.
Alcohol content 13%
Serving temperature 60-64°F

Nerofino has historical origins in the Piana Rotaliana: a Teroldego-based wine was called "Nerofino" prior to 1800.

It is the distinctive expression of the aromatic richness of two noble and historic grape varieties from the Dolomites. Teroldego gives structure with its imposing fruitiness of currants, blackberries and blueberries, and Lagrein enhances it with juiciness and softness.
