FAEDO | TRENTO
TRENTINO

WHAT THEY SAY

In their own words –‘1975, two young people, two hectares, few resources, some ideas, a lot of courage, a dream. To produce a quality wine from the vineyards between Valle dell’Adige and Valle di Cembra, to be specific on the hill of Faedo – a hill which, according to many, was not particularly dedicated to vine cultivation. The goal was to create a wine without chemicals, where everything must follow a logical thread towards purity. They visited wineries and vineyards in all wine-growing regions, taking notes on technical solutions and ideas for new products from each one, interpreting them and optimizing them fine-tuning to Trento’s key.

WHAT WE SAY

Mario & Fiorentino are heroic viticulturalists, pioneers and visionaries. The high altitude of the vineyards and the fresh breezes from Lake Garda produce beautifully clean and pure aromatics. They truly balance tradition with innovation. They have protected and revived local grape varieties but with a healthy respect for scientific experimentation and testing which they do in conjunction with the prestigious Edmund Mach foundation, a wine academy only a few kilometres away.

WHAT OTHERS SAY

‘A tireless yet histrionic duo….After 40 vintages, this Faedo winery’s prestige remains intact. The philosophy remains the same, with experimentation in both cellar and vineyard. All the products have an intense, enfolding character, and the quality is well expressed by the scores of their wines.’ Gambero Rosso Italian Wines.
