Salvetta winery is reviving the antique and unique white grape variety of Trentino Nosiola characterized by a late maturation (as for red grapes), finds in the Sarca Valley the characteristics that promote and enhance its distinctive traits: dry soils, limestone and a particular microclimate generated by winds blowing in the area.
Following a deep-rooted tradition, the wine must is left a week in contact with the skins. Nosiola then rests patiently in seasoned acacia barrels until the end of fermentation, remaining on the yeasts until May-June of the following year and finishing his aging in an old Rhenish bottle for at least a year and a half.
The time and the return to the traditional and natural methods of vinification and aging allow the Nosiola to fully express their own distinctive characteristics, extracting the main aromas of the grape and developing in the barrels and bottle secondary ones.
The result is a structured wine, able to give his best at a temperature of at least 15 degrees.
The Salvetta Nosiola is excellent with starters and dishes with fresh water fish. However, thanks to its defined structure, it is recommended also for combinations with dishes with stronger flavours.
