The winery is run according to modern and yet ancient and traditional winemaking techniques, vineyards have been replanted to valoryze the tipical varieties and and many studies concerning drying grapes have been made.

Quality
It is intense in aromas, red fruits + spices, with excellent structure and alcohol content, with a super pleasant savory note that makes the sip harmonious. A great cru from Valpolicella. The price at which it is on sale in this online wine shop is affordable. (Posted on 10/23/2023)
