Description
What type of wine it is
La Vis Müller Thurgau is a still white wine from the Trentino Denominazione di Origine Controllata, fermented in stainless steel. Boasting a bright straw-yellow colour, it offers an aromatic profile featuring notes of green apple and lychee, accompanied by floral nuances of lily of the valley and jasmine. On the palate, it is juicy, supported by a pleasant acidic tension and a distinct savouriness, finishing with a clean, mineral-driven character. Served chilled, it is the ideal accompaniment to light starters, barley soups, goat's cheeses and lean fish dishes.
Where it comes from
The Müller Thurgau grapes come from the terraced slopes located between Giovo and Meano, in the heart of the Cembra Valley. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of approximately 580 metres, with optimal west and south-facing exposures. The terrain combines porphyritic soils—loose and shallow—with silty matrices that ensure natural drainage. This habitat is characterised by a cool continental climate, where mountain breezes and significant diurnal temperature variations stimulate intense aromas and enhance the wine's saline tension.
How it is produced
The process begins with a rigorous manual harvest of the finest clusters. To keep the delicate varietal aromas intact, the grapes undergo soft pressing in an inert atmosphere, avoiding contact with oxygen. Following the static settling of the must, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The process concludes with a period of resting on the fine lees for approximately six months, an essential step to provide the wine with greater structure and depth.
History and curiosities

The logo takes inspiration from a decorative element that has always been present in the company and bears a highly symbolic value: a wooden bas-relief celebrating the founding of the winery in 1948 which represents the coats of arms of the municipalities of Lavis, Giovo and Meano, the very first protagonists in the association’s establishment. A timeless brand of great strength that puts the Winery and its founding values at the centre: cooperation, history and the bond with the territory.
The Lavis wine-makers cooperative traces its origins to 1850, when the Cembran family built the initial core of the current production unit. It was officially formed in 1948 by 14 independent wine-makers and grew in the years that followed, due partly to acquisitions of other producers, including mergers with the Salorno Cooperative of South Tyrol in 1969 and Cantina Sociale di Cembra in 2003.
