Cantina VILLA CORNIOLE

Winery in Trento DOC, Cembra Valley

About the Winery

Villa Corniole is a distinguished winery nestled in the heart of the Cembra Valley, a region renowned as the "land of heroic viticulture" in Trentino Alto Adige. Our winery's history is deeply intertwined with the generations of growers who have meticulously shaped this breathtaking alpine landscape. The Cembra Valley, with its terraced vineyards and steep slopes, is a place of unparalleled beauty and rich viticultural tradition. Here, we produce wines that are as extreme and unique as the mountain habitat from which they originate.

Our vineyards, perched on the sunny cliffs of Paganella and Monte Mezzocorona, benefit from a terroir rich in minerals, thanks to the Noce River, which carries essential components from the Brenta Dolomites down into the valley. This exceptional environment has made it possible for indigenous varieties like Teroldego, the first D.O.C. wine of Trentino, to thrive and earn its title as the "Prince of Trentino wines." In addition to Teroldego, varieties such as Lagrein and Pinot Grigio find their perfect expression in this land. Guided by a passion for innovation, a deep respect for our land, and a commitment to sustainable viticulture, the Pellegrini family continues to cultivate and preserve this rare alpine beauty. Villa Corniole stands as a testament to the harmony between nature and winemaking, offering travelers an opportunity to experience the majestic landscapes and exceptional wines of Trentino.

About the Wines

At Villa Corniole, our wines are born from the unique terroir of the Cembra Valley, where the elements of ice, water, and fire have shaped a landscape unlike any other. The geological diversity of the region, combined with the favorable microclimate, creates an ideal environment for cultivating a variety of grapes, each expressing the distinct characteristics of this extraordinary land.

Müller-Thurgau: Cultivated in the high-altitude terraces of the Cembra Valley, our Müller-Thurgau captures the crisp, aromatic profile that this white grape is known for. It is fresh, vibrant, and full of floral and citrus notes, reflecting the cool alpine climate.

Chardonnay: Our Chardonnay is a refined expression of the mineral-rich soils of the region. It offers a balanced palate with notes of apple, pear, and a hint of vanilla, making it a versatile and elegant wine.

Gewürztraminer: This aromatic white wine is rich and intense, with notes of lychee, rose petals, and spices. The unique microclimate of the Cembra Valley enhances its complexity and depth, making it a standout in our collection.

Pinot Noir: Grown in the challenging conditions of the Cembra Valley, our Pinot Noir is a delicate yet complex red wine. It boasts flavors of red berries, cherries, and subtle earthy notes, with a smooth, elegant finish.

Each wine from Villa Corniole is a true expression of the land and its ancestral energy. Our wines embody the spirit of the Cembra Valley, offering wine lovers a taste of the unique terroir that defines Trentino’s viticultural excellence.

Gold tasting
Excellent welcome right from the start; the description of the work in the cellar and of the territory was exhaustive, detailed, and engaging.
The tasting guide was competent, clear, and decidedly complete, beyond expectations.
The products tasted lived up to their promise.
A winery wonderfully set into the landscape.

Villa Corniole winery
The cantina produce some fine wines. The host (one of the sisters) gave us a very good overview of the history of the winery and the area. The surroundings are just beautiful to behold. Worth a visit and the cost of €15 euros is a good value for money. Our only regret that we were not able to buy only 1 bottle due to travel restrictions.
The Muller Thurgau was my preferred white. For reds I chose the Teroldego.

A beautiful winery, carved under the mountain.
Highly recommended!

Passion and courtesy
Family-run winery. One of the daughters accompanied us on the discovery of this winery. Small, the room where the barrels are kept is evocative.
Upstairs is the room used for the tasting. We tasted 4 wines and I must say that two of them in particular were to my taste. The Ramato Pinot Grigio amazed us. The quality/price ratio of the tasting and also of the bottles I would say is excellent.
Compliments to the girl who accompanied us with passion and kindness, answering our every question.
