Rotari Riserva Brut is made from carefully selected hand-picked Chardonnay grapes. The vines grow on the sunny slopes of the Faedo and Pressano hills, near the Adige River, in the heart of the Dolomites in the area of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The area’s soil is so called “Dolomia” stone, containing limestone, calcium and magnesium carbonate. Thanks to this unique soil, the wine has elegant mineral notes. Rotari Riserva gets its effervescence from traditional bottle fermentation and has matured with its yeast lees for at least 36 months.

Extra dry, acidic, ripe notes of citrus, pear, mineral notes, mildly baked

Producer story

The name of these sparkling wines, produced using the traditional bottle fermentation method, is a tribute to King Rotari, who ruled northern Italy in the 6th century and engaged in several battles in the Trentino region. The Lombards were a Germanic tribe, previously believed to have originated from Southern Scandinavia. Rotari sparkling wines, belonging to the Gruppo Mezzacorona, are among the most elegant traditional method sparkling wines in Italy. These wines hail from the heart of the Italian Alps in the Trentino region. The area presents an ideal setting with steep Alpine slopes, green valleys, forests, Alpine lakes and rivers, and cooling winds from the mountains, creating perfect conditions for the crafting of these stylish, elegant, and sophisticated sparkling wines. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes are cultivated in terraced vineyards on steep slopes ranging from 290 to 750 meters in altitude. All grapes used in Rotari sparkling wines are meticulously selected and hand-harvested.
