Vintage Character "Trentino DOC’s 2024 Cembra Pinot Grigio is a vibrant alpine white that truly reflects the region’s high-altitude terroir. The 2024 vintage in Trentino was shaped by a cool, sunny growing season with moderate rainfall, fostering wines with exceptional freshness and mineral-driven character.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing This Pinot Grigio opens with lively aromas of green apple, pear, and citrus blossom, complemented by subtle notes of white almond and spring herbs. The palate is crisp and well-balanced, featuring zesty acidity and a delicate minerality that leads to a clean, refreshing finish. Its clarity and texture make it an excellent partner for a range of dishes, from grilled shrimp and classic Italian risotto primavera to mild goat cheese; for a hint of Asian influence, Cantonese steamed fish beautifully highlights its mineral edge.
Winery Background Cembra Cantina di Montagna stands out for its commitment to mountain viticulture, cultivating vines at elevations among the highest in Trentino—some reaching up to 700 meters above sea level. Established in 1952 as a cooperative, the winery unites local growers dedicated to sustainable practices and the preservation of the Cembra Valley’s distinctive terroir. Their philosophy emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the purity of the fruit and the unique character of the stony, cool soils to shine through in every bottle. This dedication to quality and tradition is evident in their expressive Pinot Grigio, which consistently captures the dramatic landscape and alpine freshness of the region."
