BackgroundCombine a half-century of winemaking expertise, the dramatic landscape and terroir of northern Italy, and a profound enjoyment of the good things in life. The result: the Cavit Collection, source of America's #1 Italian wine*.The Cavit winery is based in Trentino, a picturesque landscape of mountains, lakes, apple orchards and medieval castles. Vineyards in this region enjoy the warming effects of the Ora del Garda, a dry, balmy breeze that sweeps across Lake Garda and protects the fruit from external moisture and disease. Contrastingly cool evenings promote rich, intense aromas and flavors in the grapes. Through the years, savvy wine lovers have come to depend on Cavit's stellar range of high-quality, approachable, and versatile wines as their favorite "go-to" source, perfect for any occasion.*Nielsen xAOC + Liq 52 w/e 4/22/23
