The best wineries in Lavis.
To give a soul to wine, to make it unique, unrepeatable and intimately linked to its territory: these are the motivations and the philosophy of Maso Poli.
All the activities of the farm are dedicated to the cultivation of the vine, which focused only on a few species of native and typical grape varieties, implemented on the basis of a strict selection and constant search for the maximum quality possible.
In the winery, during all stages of winemaking, Maso Poli is author of a happy co–existence of traditional techniques with modern methods.
The separate vinification of grapes from each single vineyard and the application of different winemaking techniques in the wine cellar, allow to keep the different characteristics of the territory and to transfer to wine peculiarities and nuances that, in perfect balance with each other, create the complexity and the uniqueness of a wine.
The cold maceration of the grapes allows to extract primary aromatic substances, fermentation in stainless steel at controlled temperature gives finesse to perfumes.
It is a very small business reality in the Trentino wine scene, with its 4 hectares of vineyard. But the quality of the wine produced is inversely proportional to the size of the company. From suppliers to the Cooperative Winery of Mezzacorona to the choice of vinifying grapes on their own, in order to obtain admirably characterized wines, with a strong recognizability of the variety of departure. An applaud goes to the company as a whole for the remarkable kindness of all, absolutely all, the wines in production. Wines that are reliable, structured, perfumed, never banal.
The small village of Pressano is situated on a sunny and airy hillside, just north of Lavis, surrounded by a beautiful expanse of vineyards.
In a rural residence of the seventeenth century, in the historical center of the village, my father Giuseppe began to take his first steps in his activity of winemaker, owning a small plot of land and using the cellars of our house.
Since 1991, I am, Alessandro, to look after the care of the vines and winemaking.
After their studies at the Agricultural Institute of San Michele, I worked to exploit the limited resources at my disposal, with the aim to transform the small size of the company in my point of strength.
In the countryside, I recovered the art of the farmer, re–evaluating old farming practices, fundamental to improve the quality of grapes and wine.
In the winery I vinify white grapes of Incrocio Manzoni, Nosiola, Chardonnay, and red grapes of Teroldego, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, with expert workmanship and long waits from fermentation to fining in the bottle.
Taking care personally of the countryside and of the wine cellar, allows me to blend tradition with modern oenological knowledge. In this way, authentic wines of character, texture, fragrance, freshness and vitality are created, which can express the typicality of their land of origin: Trentino.
Established winegrowers, in business already in 1751, when wine was a relief from an effort that seemed hopeless. Good years, encouraging stimuli, giving "time to time". Interpreting the climate – vines disposed in the sun, the wind that blows from Lake Garda and that ideally connects remote areas: the low Sarca with the hills of Pressano di Lavis, a breeze tamed by the Brenta Dolomites and the Paganella – and adapting the territory. Where now the new generations of the Cesconi family work with renewed enthusiasm. Respecting the character of our ancestors.
Here, then, there are the vineyards adjacent to the new winery, on a slope projected into the Cembra Valley, orderly and accurate rows, embedded in the protected landscape typical of Paganella, the mountain symbol of a highly suited to vine Trentino region. And then – in respect of individual environmental peculiarities and agronomic choices made by the family – the vine rows of the estate of Drò, in the Valley of Lakes, are mitigated by the nearby Lake Garda and are ideally united to Pressano by the healing power of the Ora: the afternoon wind that rises from the shores of Lake Garda.
Two zones, different, are deliberately cultivated to produce equally diverse wines. The white grape varieties are planted only on the slopes at high altitude, lands raised by atavistic confluences between the rivers Adige and Avisio. And the vines reserved to long–lived red wines, deep–rooted in clay plants, silt and sand of glaciations linked to Lake Garda.
Two wine realities that are so different as to be unique.
As unique is the passion for winemaking of the Cesconi family.
The Monfort wineries is a company founded in 1945 by Giovanni Simoni, grandfather of Lorenzo, the current manager, based in Lavis, a beautiful town north of Trento, always at the center of wine production in Trentino. The winery is situated in one of the most characteristic frames of the old town of Lavis: Monfort palace, formerly the residence of Counts De Melchiori. Here, our quality wines are produced, the fruit of an experience of winemakers of Trentino grapes, under the supervision of expert oenologists.
The grapes for the wines of Cantine Monfort come from vineyards with the best exposure to the Cembra Valley and the hills above Lavis and Trento, partly owned and partly of winemakers that are carefully chosen for the high quality of their products and is strictly followed in all stages of cultivation by the experts of the Monfort wineries.
The knowledge, care and love for wines have rewarded the Monfort wineries with several reports on Italian and German specialized journals and numerous awards at international level, among which, the "Mark of the Brotherhood" of Trento, the "International Competition at Expo"of Milan, the " Vinitaly International Wine Competition", the Wine Master of Estoril (P) and the International Wine Challenge in London. (and many others ...)
