Foradori’s Nosiola Trentino DOC Fontanasanta is a white wine whose name highlights both the grape variety and the cuvée. Its straightforward presentation makes it an appealing way to explore Nosiola through an expression associated with Trentino. In the glass, a measured profile can be expected, one that does not rely on intensity alone. It suits attentive tasting, allowing aromas, freshness and texture to emerge gradually. The experience will vary according to the vintage and serving conditions, so it is best to let the tasting speak for itself rather than assign the wine overly specific characteristics in advance.

At the table, it can accompany simple fish or vegetable dishes, fresh cheeses, or regional cooking that is not too elaborate. These are suggestions to adapt to the recipe and personal preference. Serve it cool, but not excessively chilled, to make its nuances easier to appreciate. Fontanasanta is a wine to share at an unhurried pace, alongside a meal or during a tasting, letting the glass set the rhythm.

Winery with about 29 hectares of vineyards and a reported average production of 180,000 bottles per year. Low-intervention winemaking practices: native yeasts, various ageing vessels, bottled without filtration.
Winery history
The estate was officially established in the early 20th century. During the 20th century ownership passed to the Foradori family and, after Elisabetta Foradori’s oenological studies, the estate adopted a focus on promoting Teroldego. In the 2000s the winery began its conversion to biodynamics and obtained Demeter certification. Management has recently involved the next generation, who continue the project of genetic recovery of the vineyards and agricultural diversification.
Production philosophy
Peradori practices agriculture attuned to the land: prioritizing vine vitality, biodiversity and biodynamic techniques. In the cellar the approach is low-intervention: fermentations with indigenous yeasts, limited use of sulfites, aging in different containers and bottling without filtration, with the aim of preserving the expression of the place.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located mainly in the Piana Rotaliana and the surrounding hills of Trentino, at the foot of the Dolomites; the soils include alluvial, gravelly and sandy deposits that influence the character of the wines.
