Cantina Lavis

Cantina Lavis is an historical winery located at the heart of the Trentino subregion. Founded in 1850 by the Cembran family, it has been a cooperative since 1948.

The wine possesses an intense golden yellow colour, with a warm, inviting bouquet rich in scents of ripe fruits and honey. It has a distinctive rich minerality, with a long and fruity aftertaste.
Excellent with sea crustacean, grilled sword fish and fresh dairy products.
Manual harvesting in mid September, soft pressing, static decantation of the must, fermentation at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks, ageing on the lees for approximately 5/6 months before bottling.

Brian Elliott, Midweek Weeks, 2026: "Despite their flowery (sometimes blowsy) ripeness, many warm climate pinot grigios lack crucial acidity. In contrast, this Trentino version delivers serious, wellstructured, Alpine-fresh wine but, inevitably, at slightly more money. Light yellow in colour with orchard blossom aromas, it brings us crunchy apple, ripe pear and subtle apricot flavours coupled with zesty acidity and a textured body containing a freshness that (fancifully) makes me think of mountain stream pebbles."
