The vineyard has always been left to its original habitat surrounded by woods and fields. They grow a few of the local vine varieties such as Durella, Garganega and the more known Cabernet Frank, Pinot Nero, and Riesling Renano. All of the vines are treated following a severe protocol called “Regola della Valle d’Agno” which goes back to the ancient native agriculture principles. Vinification follows the same rule: the less intervention the better. From the grapevine to the bottle they want our wine to express the typicality of the terroir; they want to maintain the richness of the ground in our product and to show the true origin of the wine.
