Vallagarina’s principle wine, Mozart set the seal on its fame when a guest of the Lodron family for one of his Italian concerts: he honoured this Trentino wine by citing it
in Don Giovanni: “…versa il vino, l’eccellente Marzemino!” (Pour the wine, the excellent Marzemino!)
The colour is ruby red with purple tints, the aroma and taste reminiscent of red berries with floral tones and spicy notes.
