Information
About the producer

Elisabetta Foradori is part of a whole movement of Italian winemakers who have sought to re-establish a relationship with the earth through their eco-friendly viticulture. When her father passed away in 1984, Elisabetta Foradori (at the age of just 20) took up the 26 hectares that make up the family domain, which was created in 1901 and is found at the foot of the Dolomites in northern Italy. She has returned the regional Teroldego grape to its former glory. Uninspired by methods that seek quantity over quality, she converted to biodynamics in 2002 (Demeter certification in 2009) with the aim of bringing a certain purity to her wines. In recent years, she has made it her project to revive another varietal, the Nosiola grape. Always striving for a strong identity in her wines, she even vinifies certain cuvées in amphora and terracotta containers. Today, this domain is undoubtedly the most renowned in the Trentino region – the wine made here is truly exceptional.

About the wine

The Lezèr cuvée was created with the idea of offering a Terodelgo in lighter style, ideal to enjoy in the summer thanks to its short maceration (less than 24 hours). This wine is the fruit of much experimentation, including vinification attempts in amphora, wood, concrete and steel, each in separate lots and always with a short maceration. Indeed, this ‘recipe’ continues to evolve with each vintage (some whole bunches are added, the containers are changed, maceration length can vary). The vines are around 30 years old, the grapes are harvested by hand, and fermentation takes place using only indigenous yeasts. The wine is matured for 4 months in concrete, casks or amphora. For certain vintages, other varietals are added up to 10%. This is a good sharing wine, full of fruity flavour. It will go really nicely with a charcuterie board or grilled dishes.
