Descrizione

In the glass it shows a light ruby red, bright and inviting, with a direct and honest aromatic profile: fresh red fruits, especially cherry and wild strawberry, shaded by light floral notes and a herbaceous hint that balances the sweetness.

On the palate it is slender yet well-defined, with lively freshness and a savoury quality that supports the sip; the tannins are soft, barely perceptible, and the drinking is smooth, pleasant and immediately approachable, suited to those seeking balance rather than opulence. It’s a convivial wine, ideal with appetizers, delicate cured meats, vegetable dishes and fresh cheeses; it also works well for summer tables or an informal meal. I recommend serving it slightly chilled to highlight its fruitiness and liveliness, rather than looking for long cellar evolution: its best quality is in its immediate freshness and the enjoyable ease of drinking.

Winery history

The winery has its roots in Caldaro on the Strada del Vino. According to the timeline published by the winery, its beginnings date back to 1967. The first official winemaker joined in the 1990s, and in 1999 ownership passed to the Roner family.

Production is offered across several ranges, from everyday wines to selected bottlings and reserves, with a focus on sustainability and respect for nature.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located in the vicinity of Lago di Caldaro, in the heart of Alto Adige/Trentino-Alto Adige, along the Strada del Vino n.1.
