Vintage details

The Trento Brut DOC Talento Metodo Classico - Letrari is made from a selection of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes from different vintages, carefully hand-harvested. The typical climatic conditions of Trentino, with sunny summers and cool nights, ensure slow and complete grape maturation, ideal for achieving a balance between fruity aromas and natural acidity.

Winemaking and aging

Production follows the Metodo Classico: after the first fermentation, the wine is bottled with a small amount of sugar and selected yeasts to initiate the second fermentation directly in the bottle. Trento Brut DOC Letrari remains in contact with the yeasts for at least 24 months, a period that allows for the development of refined aromas and the typical creamy palate. After disgorgement, which is the removal of the yeasts, the sparkling wine is ready to be enjoyed in its full expression.
