Ottavio is a piece of history. It comes from a tiny plot of vines that are over 100 years old, sitting in the heart of the Piana Rotaliana. This is the ultimate expression of what Teroldego can be. We hand-select the grapes with absolute precision, let them ferment spontaneously in cement, and then give the wine 15 months in oak barriques to find its soul.

It is deep, rich, and complex. You’ll find dark red fruits and jam on the nose, but there is a powerful spicy vein and a hint of liquorice that gives it real depth. It’s what we call an 'important' wine—bold and structured—but it never loses that characteristic Alpine elegance and freshness that defines the region.

Pierluigi’s Note: This is a wine for slow nights and deep conversations. It’s powerful enough to stand up to wild game, rich stews, or the most intense aged cheeses you can find. It has a long life ahead of it, so don't be afraid to let it sit in your cellar, but if you open it now, give it the time it deserves to breathe. Serve at 16–18°C.

The De Vigili family has been tied to winemaking in Trentino since the 19th century. Though wars and hardship interrupted the story, the estate was rebuilt with determination and guided by a philosophy that values quality over size.

Today the winery is led by Francesco De Vigili, who has given new life to the family tradition with a bold and contemporary vision. The cellar is imagined not only as a place of production but as a space of inclusion and gathering, where wine, art, and the beauty of the Dolomites come together.

With an eye for detail and a respect for history, De Vigili continues to craft wines that reflect both the land and the spirit of those who tend it, offering bottles with authenticity, personality, and character.

In the heart of the Italian Alps, the landscape of Trentino is defined by the dramatic limestone peaks of the Dolomites. This is a land shaped by ancient glaciers and carved by the Adige and Noce rivers, resulting in a complex soil rich in sand, silt, and mineral-heavy pebbles. Whether grown on the sun-drenched floor of the Piana Rotaliana or along the rugged mountain slopes, every ingredient—from noble grapes to earthy botanicals—is fed by pure, mineral-rich mountain springs.

The climate here is a story of sharp contrasts. Cold alpine winds from the north meet warm, gentle currents rising from the valleys, creating dramatic temperature shifts between day and night. This "alpine clarity" is the secret behind the vibrant acidity and aromatic intensity found in the region's drinks. The result is a collection of mountain-born liquids that are precise, mineral, and undeniably alive—a true reflection of the Dolomites' untamed spirit.
