Let's start with the bottle, which is one of those that stands out. A beautiful, thick glass champagne bottle, elegant with its shield-shaped label. We are talking about Altinum, the TrentoDOC Riserva proposed here by Cantina Aldeno. This elegant classic method sparkling wine is the result of particularly careful processing of grapes from the hillside vineyards managed by the winery's members in the vicinity of Aldeno. Approximately 60% are Chardonnay grapes. The remainder is Pinot Noir. A classic blend that many quality sparkling wines share. In this case, however, the "extra gear" is given by a special process, with about 40% of the base wine fermenting and aging in barriques for 5 months before being blended with the other part, which is aged exclusively in steel. The cuvée thus obtained is re-fermented in the bottle in the month of February following the harvest and patiently waits for at least 80 months, over 6 years, before being degorged. What you discover when you uncork a bottle of this TrentoDOC Riserva is certainly not the classic sparkling wine to be served only as an aperitif. Rather, it is a fabulous wine for the whole meal, perfectly suited to accompany both fish and meat dishes. Thanks to its fine structure, in fact, it is not afraid to be paired with tasty risottos, with saffron and sausage.
There are few regions in Italy where cooperation in the field of wine produces better results than Trentino. In this case, the birth of the social wine cellar was the natural consequence of a viticulture that over the years has become increasingly central to the life of a small mountain village. Hills covered with pergolas and passionate men who tilled their land to produce great local wines. Then, in 1910, a group of particularly far-sighted producers decided to bet everything on Aldeno wine, uniting their efforts in the Cantina Sociale. Their intuition, which today is more valid than ever, was that in a competitive world like that of wine, the only way to emerge was to create a solid reality, capable of operating safely in all markets. A few years later a second cooperative was born, the Unione Vinicola Aldeno. And the history of these two cooperatives was to accompany the life of the community and the town for more than half a century. Until 1972, when the two cooperatives merged to form the current winery.
