Zell Trento DOC
Metodo Classico Brut
TRENTO DOC
A jewel of our territory, obtained with a second fermentation in bottle, Metodo Classico.
VINEYARD
The grapes selected for the cuvée are grown exclusively in the vineyards of the locality Zell, in Trento, at the altitude of 500 above the sea level, an area which is renowned for the cultivation of grapes to be used for the sparkling wines.
The vines are planted according to the “girapoggio” system, literally translated “around the hilltop”, on a big natural terrace with a south exposure, towards the Adige valley; the soil is not very deep, it is draining and rich of slivers of marly limestone.
