True colours of Valpolicella
“We believe that there’s an amazing story that this terroir has to tell. And we want to narrate it through our Valpolicella wines; pure, shameless and transparent”
“The vineyard is where everything begins”
“The vineyard is where everything begins, 10 hectares of strong vocation inside the Valpolicella Storica region, 300 meters of altitude. Our vines of Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella are raised Guyot style on hilly terracings facing south.”
Terrain
“Terrain is rugged, almost completely rocky, a few centimeters of turf and then, underneath, the typical ‘calcarenite gialla’ a yellowish soft limestone frequently found on Valpolicella’s hills.”
Biodiversity
“The entire vineyard is organically grown, and lot has been done to enhance biodiversity and soil vigour. Constant green manures and re-planting of wild species all around the vines has helped recreating a deeply vital and fertile environment.”
The harvest
“Our best grapes are selected and hand picked fully ripe and delicately put in 7 kg.”
Winemaking
Fermentation is totally natural and triggered only with a pied-de-cuve of the same grapes with its indigenous yeasts. The evolution proceeds in concrete tanks and ceramic barrels for up to 12 months. We do not use wood in aging. No chemical substances are used in the fining or in the filtering process.
It’s a wine made in the vineyard, not in the cellar.
