Cavit is a leading co-operative in the mountainous Trentino region of northeast Italy. The winery began as a consortium of associated grape growers in 1950, with a dedicated winery at Ravina di Trento built in 1964. Today It unites 11 separate cellars and their combined 5,300 grape growers across 6,200 hectares of vineyard, to produce an impressively broad portfolio from an intriguing palette of indigenous and international grape varieties. Trentino has a much higher proportion of wines produced as DOC than any other region in Italy.
Bottega Vinai Sauvignon is made exclusivley from Sauvignon Blanc grapes cultivated in the hills of the Valle dei Laghi, Trentino. The average grape yield is 70 hl/ha. De-stalked grapes undergo cold maceration for 12 hours to facilitate extraction of the aromas. After this the grapes are soft pressed and undergo temperature controlled fermentation.
Refined varietal characters on the nose with nettle, elderflower and lemon zest. Palate is ripe and juicy with crisp citrus acidity and white peach and ripe mango, an attractive texture and depth, and a gently floral finish.
Try with prawn risotto, spaghetti with clams, or goats cheese and grilled white meat.
