Cantina Viticoltori
Trentini
Cavit (which stands for Cantina Viticoltori del Trentino) is a cooperative group that incorporates 11 cooperative wineries in Trentino and their 5.250 associated winegrowers.
Today Cavit gathers, inspects and selects the raw material produced by the associated wineries, carrying out controls at every stage, from maturation through to bottling, with complete respect for the environment.
Cavit collaborates with the renowned San Michele all’Adige Agricultural Institute (Edmund Mach Foundation), which trains the most highly specialised agronomists, as well as with other Italian wine research centres.
As a result, the quality wines produced are nationally and internationally awarded.
History
Consortium of co-operative wineries
Cavit’s history began in 1950, when some vinegrowers, aware of the uniqueness of their land and eager to valorise their products, entered into partnership, establishing a Consortium of associated grape growers, a first draft of Cavit.
WIne cellar
In 1957 a commercial role was added to the technical service provided: the Consortium opened a winery to meet the increased needs of its members.
Cavit headquarters in Ravina di Trento
In 1964 the current headquarters in Ravina di Trento were built; from 1977 onwards these were extended and today cover an area of 80,000 sq. m.
Barrique cellar
Since then Cavit has become a reference point for the wine production in Trentino.
Associated cellars
With the aid of the 11 associated wineries spread throughout Trentino, Cavit has been able to develop and consolidate a wealth of experience and tradition acquired in over 70 years. Cavit represents one of the “hearts” of Trentino, a book offering ever-new chapters, bound together by the natural evolution of a tradition that knows no end.

Maso Toresella
Cavit’s representation site, built in the sixteenth century, is Maso Toresella, which is surrounded by over 6.5 hectares of vineyards near the Lake Toblino, one of the most delightful areas in Trentino. Whithin the property of the Maso Toresella, the Prince Bishops of Trento founded a magnificent villa.
In these vineyards, Cavit create extremely high quality wines such as those in the “Il Maso” range, which are crus in their own right.
