Vinous Reverie Notes
Nosiola is the only native white variety of Trentino, present since the times of the Council of Trento. The origin of the name has not yet been clarified. Many argue that it derives its name from hazelnut, due to the color of the grapes when they are ripe, while others say that the aroma of the wines is reminiscent of that of wild hazelnuts. It's a versatile variety, which manages to produce both great sweet wines and still whites, with a savory character that can age for many decades. Once widespread throughout the province, Nosiola was mainly cultivated on the Pressano hill and in the Valle dei Laghi. In recent times, the variety has undergone a strong downsizing in favor of international varieties, so much so that it has become almost “rare”.
