Product Notes

Hailing from Italy's Alpine Trentino region, Cesconi Olivar wine is a unique blend, carefully crafted from autochthonous grape varieties. This elegant, full-bodied red wine is enriched with ripe red fruits and spicy notes, layered with a delightful touch of vanilla and tobacco. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a firm structure, exquisitely balanced by the fruity freshness and a tantalising acidity. The wine's temerity matures with age, revealing more complex flavours. Perfectly paired with hearty meat dishes, Cesconi Olivar is an unforgettable delight for the senses, encapsulating the dedication and tradition of Italian winemakers.

Tasting Notes

Cesconi is now firmly established as one of the top Fruili wine producers and is farmed organically or biodynamically. Aromas of peach and white flowers on the nose are nicely balanced on the palate by layers of citrus fruits and vanilla notes from gentle oak ageing.

Nestled in the picturesque Dolomites of northern Italy, Cesconi winery is an emblem of traditional winemaking tactics woven flawlessly with modern innovation.

Stationed in Pressano, at the heart of Trentino, this winery provides a breathtaking view of its surrounding terrains; rugged mountains and serene vineyards providing a canvas inspiring divine creation. A significant factor in the unmistakable quality and distinct character of Cesconi wines is the unique blend of alpine and Mediterranean climates this area enjoys. Sunlit, chilly mornings and crisp evenings allow the grapes to mature gradually, lending a symphony of flavours and structured depth to the wines.

Aside from the terroir, the temptation of Cesconi wines also lies in their cellar. Under the watchful eyes of a talented team, traditional wine making techniques meets contemporary advancements, producing wines that emanate elegance and bold individuality. Selective handpicking of grapes, non-aggressive pressing, fermentation in steel, cement or wood, and prolonged skin maceration has a definitive role- the wines are deliberately honed till they echo the quintessential properties of their makers' and the surrounding nature.

Cesconi believes in the organic cultivation of their vineyard, dedicated to showcasing the intimate connection between the terrain and the vines. The rich biodiversity of the vineyards adds to the complexity of their wines, allowing each variety to fully express its character.

The soul of Italy courses through every vintage they create. From the robust Teroldego Rotaliano and the well-structured Merlot blended Nosiola to the majestic, sparkling Trentodoc; Cesconi winery is a visual and sensory delight that invites connoisseurs defying the ordinary, in their pursuit of exceptional wines.
