Ferrari is a sparkling wine producer based in Trentino, in the mountainous Trentino-Alto Adige region of northeastern Italy. The house focuses exclusively on traditional method sparkling wines (metodo classico), the production method that defines quality sparkling wine throughout Europe.

Trentino DOC is known for producing sparkling wines of considerable finesse, benefiting from the region's cool alpine climate and limestone-rich soils. These conditions favor the production of high-acidity base wines suited to extended aging on the lees, a cornerstone of traditional method production. Wines from this appellation tend toward freshness and mineral character rather than richness, with good aging potential.

Ferrari's current range centers on Chardonnay-based traditional method wines. Chardonnay is the primary variety for quality sparkling wine production across northern Italy and provides the structure and complexity necessary for the extended bottle aging that characterizes metodo classico.

Trentino DOC is a wine appellation located in the autonomous province of Trentino in northern Italy, part of the broader Trentino-Alto Adige region. The zone encompasses vineyards scattered throughout the valleys and hillsides of this mountainous territory, stretching from the shores of Lake Garda in the south to the Dolomites in the north. The DOC designation allows for production of both still and sparkling wines from a range of grape varieties.

The region's continental Alpine climate is characterized by significant diurnal temperature variation, with warm days and cool nights that help preserve acidity in the grapes. Vineyards are planted at elevations ranging from lake level to over 800 meters on terraced slopes, with diverse soil types including limestone, volcanic porphyry, and alluvial deposits. The appellation permits numerous grape varieties including international varieties like Chardonnay, Pinot Nero, and Merlot, alongside regional specialties. Traditional method sparkling wine production has become particularly established here, taking advantage of the cool climate and suitable grape varieties.

Trentino DOC wines often display fresh acidity and mineral character derived from the mountain terroir and elevation. The sparkling wines, particularly those made from Chardonnay using the traditional method, tend to show clean citrus and apple flavors with fine persistent bubbles and crisp finish. The high altitude vineyards and temperature swings contribute to wines with good structure and aromatic intensity while maintaining elegance and finesse.
