Saltner Il Masetto Trentino 1976
The 1976 Saltner Il Masetto is a red wine crafted by Azienda Vinicola Dolzan. Classified as a Vino da Tavola, this wine originates from the "Il Masetto" estate located in S. Michele all'Adige. The name "Saltner" translates to "The Guardian of the Vineyard," reflecting the historical and traditional heritage of the estate.
The wine is produced in Trentino, the southern part of the Trentino-Alto Adige region in Northern Italy. This area covers a long valley surrounding the Adige River, situated between the Dolomites and Lake Garda. The region is characterized by an alpine and continental climate with significant diurnal temperature variations, where vineyards can be found at elevations up to 900 meters.
Following the artisanal traditions of the Trentino region, this wine is created as a carefully selected blend of fine grapes from the local estate. After the initial vinification, the wine was aged in oak barrels, a method that honors the classic winemaking practices of the area.
