Cantina Sociale di Trento - Ziresi Marzemino

The grapes are grown in the area of Ziresi, which is an area, where Marzemino has been grown for a very long time. This area is situated in the municipality of Volano, in the south of Trento. The name Ziresi means cherry-tree in Trentino dialect and it is due to the fact that on the border of the vineyards there are several cherry-trees.

Once in the winery, the grapes are de-stemmed and crushed. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with frequent pumping –over operations. The juice stays on the skins for a short time, in order to avoid an excessive extraction of tannins and to favour freshness and a good balance. For the same reason, the wine is not aged in wood.

Ruby in colour, the wine is reminiscent of violet on the nose; on the mouth the wine is delicate, inviting, with soft tannins.
