Teroldego Rotaliano Superiore DOC Riserva<br />THE MASO<br /><br />Within the framework of Trentino oenology, Teroldego has always had a prestigious role and for this reason it is called the 'prince wine' of Trentino. No one has so far<br />been able to say anything certain about its origin. Some say that a long time ago the Teroldego, a vine variety cultivated in the Veronese area, was brought to that large<br />nest called Campo Rotaliano, others, instead, date its origins back to the hills of Sorni, while others maintain that the name Teroldego derives from the German Tiroler Gold,<br />that is, Gold of the Tyrol. What is certain is that the first entry of the name of this vine in literature dates back to the 18th century in the oenological disquisitions of<br />Michelangelo Mariani, historiographer of the Council of Trent.<br /><br />Production area: from vineyards located in the most suitable areas of Campo Rotaliano in Trentino, in the municipality of Mezzolombardo.
