Trento Sparkling Brut “Paladino” from the Revì winery represents a 360-degree sustainability project, from vineyard to bottle: paper is banned, the label is screen-printed on the glass, while the packaging consists of a cotton bag and the capsule is made from the leaves that wrap corn cobs, sealed with a willow tie.
The Revì winery produces the Trento Sparkling Brut “Paladino” by vinifying pure Chardonnay grapes from a vineyard that extends at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level, along the slopes of Mount Cimirlo and surrounded by meadows and dense forests. The area is shaped by the mountain massif that separates Trento and the Adige Valley to the west from Valsugana and Lake Caldonazzo on the eastern side, and is located on the opposite bank of the river from the winery's location, which is in the municipality of Aldeno, several kilometers southwest, on the first slopes of the Adamello Brenta range. The vines enjoy a western exposure and are cultivated according to organic farming principles, on rocky soils characterized by limestone and porphyry. The harvest is carried out manually around mid-September and the winemaking operations take place in steel tanks: soft pressing is followed by clarification of the must and alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperature. In March, bottling takes place for the sparkling process and the aging on the lees lasts for 58 months. The residual sugar is around 3 grams per liter.
“Paladino” by Revì presents itself visually in a straw yellow hue with golden reflections, featuring fine effervescence. The nose reveals itself immediately intense and complex, marked by notes of ripe yellow-fleshed fruit meeting floral and honeyed aromas, in a framework characterized by rocky mineral notes. Great roundness on the palate, with a silky effect brought by the finest bubbles and a hint of creamy softness: the finish with a saline trail is of great persistence. An Extra Brut sparkling wine for grand banquets, for refined dishes based on meats with complex sauces or intense seafood platters.
