Despite numerous attempts to acclimatize it in other regions, Teroldego remains deeply bound to its mountains and the unique environment of the Piana Rotaliana. The soil, rich with calcareous, granitic and porphyric rocks carried by the river Noce downstream, ensures a perfect drainage for rainwater; the cliffs, massive and vertical, protect the vines from the cold winds and reflect the heat absorbed from the sun: these conditions are exclusive to this environment and essential for enabling the wine to best express its mineral, floral and spicy character.

In the mid-nineteenth century, the path of the Noce River was managed and diverted southward, leaving the Campo Rotaliano in its current geographical conformation and leading to a further factor of excellence for Teroldego: the fragmentation of the vineyards into many small plots has clearly highlighted the differences between each plot depending on its distance from the ancient riverbed. In fact, the various soils, that are predominantly rocky, gravely or sandy, transmit to the wine a real originality. Intensity, strength, depth, finesse as well as minerality, freshness, elegance: a profusion of widely divergent elements but that combined in perfect harmony have always allowed the wine, considered “Prince of Trentino”, to be the real expression of a land, its people, the Dolomites."
