Altemasi Trento Doc was born in 1993 as a line of excellence of Cavit sparkling wine: a project that is based on the selection of the most suitable vineyards, grown with simple pergolas located in the surroundings of Trento, in the Valle dei Laghi and on the Brentonico plateau, among the 450 and the 800 meters of altitude, exposed to the south and south-west, with yields of around 70 hl per hectare and a strong temperature range that enriches the grapes with aromas. The cellar, built in the same year in Trento, is made up of a unique, high-tech and highly functional structure developed on 4 levels, where the great Altemasi Trento Doc wines rest for at least 36 months on the lees.

The Altemasi style receives every year the success of critics and the public, with prizes from national guides (such as the 5 Bibenda glasses for the Riserva Graal 2013) and from international competitions, with the awards obtained by the Sparkle guide and also at the Concours Mondial des vins extrèmes .
