Pedrotti Spumanti is a historic brand dating back to 1901, focused on the production of Metodo Classico Trento DOC sparkling wine. The winery is located in Nomi, a small municipality south-east of Trento, close to the Adige river. It is run by Chiara and Donatella, who carry on a distant dream of their father. It was Paolo who was inspired to use a cave from the First World War as a place for wines to rest on the lees and undergo the ageing process. In 1982, Luigi Veronelli, master of Italian oenology, christened that cave the ‘Cattedrale dello Spumante’ (Cathedral of Sparkling Wine), and it continues to be called this today. Trento DOC Brut Millesimato di Pedrotti is a Trentino sparkling wine made from 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pino Noir grapes. Once the base for the sparkling wine has been prepared, the grapes spend up to 50 months on the lees before disgorgement. In the glass, this wine is a splendid golden yellow with a delicate and persistent perlage. On the nose, the yeasty notes mix well with yellow and dried fruits. The wine is fine and persistent in the mouth. Its great vibrancy is balanced by mineral notes. This wine is perfect for an aperitif with friends or to accompany a meal, in which case we recommend pairing it with fish or shellfish dishes.
