Tonalite - Teroldego Rotaliano

Italy's alpine secret.

Teroldego grows at the foot of the Dolomites, in the Piana Rotaliana one of the most stunning vineyards in europe. There the air is crisp and the nights are cool. The World Atlas of Wine calls it "one of Italy's great characters"—and they're right. It's got personality, freshness, and a kind of alpine brightness you don't find in other Italian reds. More and more people are discovering the elegance of "Alpine wines" —and once you taste it, you'll understand why.

What makes it special?

Deep ruby in the glass, with aromas of violets, cherries, and wild berries straight from the mountain. On the palate? Juicy, lively fruit with a lifted, almost electric freshness. The tannins are there, but gentle—more silky than grippy. Tonalite, that enriches the local soil, provides savouriness and minerality.

What to pair it with:

• Roasted or grilled meat
• Aged cheeses with jam
• Pasta with red sauce
• The bottle you bring when you want to surprise someone

Serve at 16–18°C | 13% alcohol

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.

The vineyards of De Vigili are located in the Piana Rotaliana, one of Trentino’s most renowned wine-growing areas. Nestled between the Adige and Noce rivers and framed by the Dolomite rock walls of Mezzocorona and Mezzolombardo, this land has been shaped by glaciers and enriched with fertile soils of sand, silt, and Tonalite pebbles.

The climate is marked by striking contrasts: cold alpine winds meet warm currents rising from Lake Garda, creating wide day-night temperature shifts that bring both freshness and depth to the wines.

In this unique environment, Chardonnay and Teroldego thrive, producing mountain wines that are precise, mineral, and full of character — a true reflection of the Dolomites.
