Trentino

Trentino Alto Adige is an internationally famous region for the elegance of its wines, where viticulture has ancient origins, which date back to the Illyrian civilization, present in the area before the arrival of the Romans. Viticulture had a great revival in the medieval period thanks to the abbeys, which produced wine by harvesting the grapes from small winemakers (the story still continues today in reality as the Abbey of Novacella). In South Tyrol today there is one of the most qualified universities in Europe, the school of San Michele all'Adige, famous because it was here that the action of sulfur against powdery mildew was tested for the first time. This region, with a production of almost 1,400,000 hectoliters, has 10 different DOCs, 6 IGTs and no DOCGs and has a particularly favorable climate for viticulture thanks to the influences of the Peler and Ora winds which make the temperatures of the Valle dei Laghi, allowing the nosiola grapes to dry perfectly in the racks and vinify an excellent Vino Santo, and the Valle Isarco, where the great Rieslings manage to achieve excellence.
