Within the Trentino wine landscape, one of the most suitable areas for high-quality mountain wine production is Vallagarina—the valley connecting Trento to Verona and representing one of the most interesting wine corridors in the Alpine region.
Just a few kilometers from Rovereto lies Maso, a historic agricultural estate owned by the same family since 1912.
This is a compact, complete, and strategically positioned wine asset, with a strong territorial identity and significant industrial and commercial growth potential.
A Highly Suitable Trentino Terroir
The estate extends over 14 hectares in a single block, entirely planted with vineyards, at an altitude of approximately 300 meters above sea level.
The Volano area is historically recognized for key agronomic characteristics:
- strong natural ventilation along the Adige Valley
- excellent sun exposure on multiple slopes
- marked day-night temperature variations
- well-drained alluvial and morainic soils
This microclimate allows slow and optimal grape ripening, ensuring healthy fruit and high aromatic concentration—essential elements for quality wines.
Vallagarina is also one of the most dynamic wine areas in Trentino, home to major cooperative and private wineries. Many growers supply leading companies such as Ferrari Trento, confirming its strong vocation for Trentodoc sparkling wine base production.
A Structured and Mechanizable Vineyard
The vineyard covers 13.3 hectares, with varieties perfectly suited to the local pedoclimatic conditions.
Grape varieties:
- Traminer Aromatico – 3.3 ha
- Pinot Grigio – 1.7 ha
- Chardonnay – 2.7 ha
- Merlot – 1.4 ha
- Cabernet Sauvignon – 1.5 ha
- Cabernet Franc – 0.2 ha
- Moscato Rosa – 0.2 ha
- Moscato Giallo – 1.4 ha
- Pinot Nero – 0.9 ha
The vineyard is fully irrigated with a drip system and supported by a deep well with a capacity of 2 liters per second, ensuring water security even in dry vintages.
The land is suitable for mechanization, enabling efficient and modern vineyard management.
A Modern, Fully Operational Winery
Built in 1997, the winery is centrally located within the estate and covers approximately 980 sqm, with expansion potential.
It accommodates the entire production cycle:
- vinification
- grape drying (appassimento)
- aging
- bottling
- storage
The winery is equipped with advanced technologies, including:
- automated systems for grape drying
- cooling and dehumidification systems
- stabilization and bottling systems
- underground aging room for barrique and bottle refinement
A distinctive feature is the presence of advanced drying systems, enabling the production of wines with high aromatic complexity.
Production and Industrial Potential
The estate produces approximately:
- 2,000 quintals of grapes per year
Equivalent to a production capacity of:
- around 200,000 bottles annually
Currently, only a small portion (about 20%) is vinified in-house, corresponding to 20,000–25,000 bottles.
The remaining grapes are delivered to the Mezzacorona cooperative, one of the most important in Trentino.
This model makes Maso a highly flexible asset with multiple development options.
Production could be increased up to 400,000 bottles annually by sourcing additional grapes, while maintaining favorable agricultural tax status.
A Distinctive Wine Portfolio
The estate produces five labels, recognized by industry guides and international competitions.
Key wines:
- Pra’ del Maso
Merlot produced with carbonic maceration, elegant and fruit-driven, with soft tannins and excellent drinkability. - Traminer
Aromatic wine made with partial whole-cluster pressing and maceration, enhancing complexity and aromatic intensity. - Moscato Rosa
A rare Trentino sweet wine from dried grapes, with notes of rose, spices, and red fruits. - Edys
Dessert white wine from Moscato Giallo, Chardonnay, and Traminer, partially dried and partially overripe on the vine. - Red “Governo” Method
Merlot-Cabernet blend using the traditional Governo method, with the addition of dried grapes for a second fermentation, enhancing structure and complexity.
