The wine

The Foradori vineyards are located in the Campo Rotaliano, a small plain hidden away amongst steep rocky walls where, depending on the soil composition, several different terroirs can be distinguished. The vines, the result of a massal selection from old vineyards, planted in 12 of those parcels with an alluvial soil, combine to create this wine.

As is well known, Elisabetta Foradori's winery doesn't use chemical products and operates in accordance with biodynamic certification. The huge respect always shown to Nature and a close observation of the vineyards enable the most clear-cut expression of the Teroldego to show through, a mountain variety in whose recuperation Foradori has spent more than 20 years working hard.

The grape must ferments in concrete tanks, often with a small amount of the stalks, and matures for a year in large-volume wooden and concrete containers which allow the fruit's essence to be preserved and concentrate the wine. This can easily be discerned in the depth of its Picota cherry colour and the intensity of its red fruit (redcurrants and cherries). On the palate, minerality and freshness ooze from all sides, combining hints of ash and scrubland blue flowers. Its fruit is rounded, nigh on perfect, generous and juicy. Its finish, with a marked acidity, defines the varietal's profile to perfection.

Elisabetta Foradori

Joining the Winery founded in 1939 by her grandfather, at nineteen years of age, Elisabetta Foradori is the recognized Lady of Teroldego, the guardian of her territory. She herself, defined herself as such in an excellent interview with the Italian newspaper "La Repubblica", outlining her own story as a winemaker, oenologist, businesswoman and communicator of the territory in which she lives in symbiosis: the magical Piana Rotaliana that produces, thanks to the mineral-rich...
