Ca’ Montini Pinot Grigio highlights the rich history and exceptional quality of Trentino winemaking. It proves that with discerning site selection, meticulous vineyard management and skilled winemaking, Trentino can and does produce world-class wines.
Nestled in the foothills of the Alps, with views of the soaring Dolomites, the Terre di Valfredda (“Cold Valley”) vineyard provides a perfect east/west exposure and natural protection by the surrounding mountains – perfect for ripening Pinot Grigio. The traditional Pergola Trentina system shields the grapes from excessive sunlight and wind, while every stage – from bud selection and fruit thinning to hand harvesting – is carefully managed to ensure the grapes highlight the finest characteristics of the terroir.
The vinification process was developed under the direct supervision of the legendary Riccardo Cotarella and his technical team. A Wine Enthusiast “Winemaker of the Year” and Gambero Rosso “Best Italian Winemaker”, Cotarella has been lauded as “one of the most influential wine personalities in the world” by Robert Parker.
A refreshing departure from the innocuous and uninteresting Pinot Grigio so common in the mainstream market, Ca’ Montini delivers an elegance, sophistication and finesse that has captivated wine drinkers around the world.
