Produced in Northern Italy’s Trentino region with grapes sourced from select hillside vineyard sites, Alta Luna offers expressive wines from the region’s native varietals. Established in 2011, Alta Luna offers a quartet of wines that appeal to a wide range of consumer preferences. With a name that means “High Moon” in Italian, Alta Luna’s sleek and modern packaging features a water-colored depiction of the Dolomite mountains.
TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTESThe Alta Luna vineyards are situated along the foothills of the Adige Valley, bordering Trentino and Alto Adige, in the town of Roverè delle Luna. These high-altitude vineyards benefit from an ideal aspect and unique, well-draining glacial-alluvial soils. The climate in this region makes all the difference. Northern Trentino enjoys warm temperatures in the summer, contributing to the development of ripe concentrated fruit and elegant aromatics, while the cool evenings maintain the fruit’s acidity: the result are wines that are refreshing and well-balanced.
WINEMAKINGEach variety is harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and undergoes separate fermentation in stainless steel tanks.
AGINGAged in oak for 12 months.
TASTING NOTESDeep ruby red in color. On the nose, dark cherry, plum and blackberry aromas combine with intriguing spicy notes. On the palate, rich, concentrated dark fruit character against powerful yet silky tannins and bright acidity. Outstanding match for pasta dishes, grilled meats, pork and flavorful cheeses.
