Trentino

Trentino – wines from the heart of the Dolomites

Between rugged rock faces, mild Lake Garda climate, and alpine freshness lies one of Italy's most exciting wine regions: Trentino. Anyone pouring a wine into the glass here immediately feels the independence of this landscape – cool and precise, but with a warmth that reveals its southern origin. Trentino is not a loud appearance, but a lasting impression. And that is exactly what makes the wines so special.

Wine style and character

The wines from Trentino combine alpine expression with Mediterranean fullness. The high altitude ensures pronounced acidity and freshness, while the long sunny days give the grapes ripeness and depth. Red varieties such as Lagrein, Marzemino, and Teroldego show dark fruit, spicy notes, and a velvety structure – often aged in barriques, which gives them additional complexity. International grape varieties such as Merlot, Carménère, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay also find ideal conditions here and mature into wines of impressive elegance. Added to this are fresh white wines and high-quality sparkling wines from the Trento DOC, which is among Italy's most renowned.

Important origins and producers

In the Vinoscout range, you will find Trentino wines from some of the region's most significant addresses:

• San Leonardo – The Tenuta San Leonardo winery is considered one of Trentino's icons. The red wine of the same name made from international varieties is a classic with depth and aging potential. The varietal Carménère also shows how independent and expressive this grape variety can be in Trentino.
• Cantina Andrian – This cooperative winery from the Überetsch stands for precise vinification and varietal wines. Whether the powerful Gant Merlot Riserva, the elegant Anrar Pinot Noir Riserva, or the fresh Andrius Sauvignon Blanc – the quality here is right across the board.
• Cantina Terlan – Known for exceptional white wines with aging potential. The Kreuth Chardonnay and the Gries Lagrein Riserva – both also available as magnums – stand for this winery's philosophy: depth instead of superficiality.
• Ferrari – When it comes to Trento DOC, there is no way around Ferrari. The Maximum Rosé as a 1.5-liter magnum is a festive sparkling wine with class and character.

Food recommendations

Trentino wines are true table companions. The powerful reds like Lagrein or Marzemino harmonize wonderfully with braised meat, game dishes, and aged cheeses. A Merlot or Carménère from the region goes excellently with pasta with meat sauce, risotto, or grilled dishes. The fresh white wines and Sauvignon Blancs are recommended with fish, seafood, and light appetizers. You best serve the Trento DOC Rosé as an aperitif or with antipasti and finger food – it cuts a fine figure on every table.
