As an advocate for small growers with her company Wine Soul, Alessandra Caroni educates us about Trento DOC, a sparkling wine made in the classic method from grapes grown in the Dolomite Mountains. Maso Martis is the organic brand she represents in Trento DOC. These wines from the Northern Italian region of Trentino area fantastic value for sparkling wine fans who are shopping outside the champagne box.
(For another example of champagne method wine, known as "metodo classico" in Italy, check out Season 2 Episode 6, where Susannah Gold explains this method with the example of another Italian sparkler, Franciacorta.)
Alessandra didn’t come from a winemaking family, but in Italy wine is just a way of life. Alessandra originally wanted to be a model. Instead, her foreign language study helped her become an export manager for a large Lambrusco company. An adventure tasting wine from the barrel at organic wineries all over Italy caused Alessandra to become so passionate about small farms that she changed the direction of her career so she could champion families who are involved with every part of the process of making wine.

We also discuss Ferrari wines, which have nothing to do with the Ferrari car family--though they have been the official toasting wine of Formula One racing! Giulio Ferrari had a vision from the beginning of the 20th century that gradually inspired farmers to make traditional method wines in Trentino from the same grapes used to make champagne: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier.
Recording with Alessandra was a spontaneous opportunity and we lacked an ideal location. As a result, there is some background noise.
