Azienda Agricola Salvetta

Salvetta: A Historic Winery in Scenic Surroundings

Azienda Agricola Salvetta is a family-owned winery nestled in the picturesque village of Madruzzo – Sarche, surrounded by the majestic cliffs of the Dolomites. The winery boasts three vineyard plots located north of the Sarca River, where a unique sub-mediterranean microclimate and rich soil contribute to the production of exceptional wines. Since transitioning to organic practices in 2012, Salvetta has been dedicated to crafting exquisite white wines recognized under the Vino Santo Trentino DOC designation.

Generations of Winemaking Expertise

The Salvetta family's winemaking tradition began in 1930 when Dario Salvetta acquired the Giacomo Sommadossi vineyard. His sons—Renato, Umberto, Franco, and Giancarlo—continued the family legacy with the same dedication until 2003. After a brief hiatus, Giancarlo revitalized the winery, transforming it into an organic estate. He embraced local winemaking techniques that have been practiced in Trentino for centuries, successfully exporting their wines to Australia and Europe.

Vines Flourishing by the Sarca River & Mount Casale

At Salvetta Winery, the focus is primarily on the Nosiola grape variety, cultivated on ancient terroirs. Since 2012, Giancarlo has nurtured biodynamic grapes that showcase unique aromas and flavors, reflecting the essence of their soil. The winery team is committed to 100% organic methods, including manual harvesting, pressing, and aging in oak barrels, ensuring the production of high-quality white wines that resonate with the region's rich heritage.
