100% Manzoni Bianco. Manzoni is a 1930's crossing of Riesling Renano and Pinot Bianco, developed in the Veneto by Dr. Luigi Manzoni. Foradori works 5 hectares of this rare variety in the Fontanasanta vineyard at about 400 meters above the city of Trento, a few miles down-valley from the Foradori estate in Mezzolombardo. The vines are 15 to 35 years old and grow on clay-limestone soils. The farming is organic. The bunches are harvested by hand and destemmed. Fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeasts and without sulfur in cement and steel tanks; maceration with the skins lasts 3-4 days. The wine goes through malo and is aged in used acacia barrels for about 7 months. It is bottled without fining or filtering and with the wine's only very small dose of sulfur. Like all Foradori wines, the wine is classified as IGT Vigneti delle Dolomiti.

Region: Trentino/Alto Adige

There are few wine regions in Italy which generate quite as much intrigue and excitement amongst wine lovers as that of Trentino-Alto Adige. Situated in the northernmost borders of the country, Trentino-Alto Adige is a wine region quite unlike any other in Italy. With a range of influences from Germany, Lombardy and Venezia, the wines of Trentino-Alto Adige tend to be quite different from those found elsewhere in Italy, and are often considered to be the country's finest produce. The region is an alpine one, and the flavors of the Alps are often detected in Trentino-Alto Adige's finest white wines – all fresh, crystal waters and resiny aromas – whilst the red wines are generally deep and spicy, and perfect for a range of cuisines.

Country: Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
