Cave des Onze Communes Soc. Coop. - Village Urbains, 14, 11010 Aymavilles (AO)
Of the seven geographical sub-denominations that represent the highest expression of the 'terroir' of the Valle d'Aosta appellation, Torrette is the best known and most cultivated. It takes its name from the mountain of the same name located in the commune of Saint-Pierre. Cave des Onze Communes produces it from grapes that come from vineyards located in the municipalities of Quart, Saint-Christophe, Aosta, Sarre, Villeneuve, Saint-Pierre, Charvensod Aymavilles, Jovençan and Gressan. Harvesting is staggered over a period of about two weeks, depending on the different altitudes and exposures of the vineyards, located between 600 and 800 metres above sea level. Petit Rouge is 70%, the rest being blended from red grape varieties characteristic of the area. This red wine ferments and rests for about 6 months exclusively in steel tanks and is bottled from the late spring following the harvest. Ruby red in colour tending towards garnet, the nose reveals an intense aroma of red fruits and hay. Slightly spicy, with bottle ageing it takes on typical almond notes. On the table it goes well with cured meats, white and red meats and medium-aged local cheeses such as Toma and Fontina.
Immersed in the heart of the Alps, the Cave des Onze Communes, a cooperative winery, can count on approximately 63 hectares of vineyards, extremely parcelled out and distributed over the territory of 11 municipalities: Quart, Saint-Christophe, Aosta, Sarre, Saint Pierre, Villeneuve, Introd, Aymavilles, Jovençan, Gressan and Charvensod. We are located 'à l'Adret' and 'à l'Envers' of the Dora Baltea, with altitudes reaching 800 metres above sea level. Scenarios of extraordinary beauty but extremely impervious, where mechanisation is impossible. In the vineyards, strictly indigenous varieties, with limited use of pesticides and skilful use of agronomic practices. In the company's precious catalogue, 22 DOC wines, 2 table wines, for a total production of around 500 thousand bottles per year.
