Elegant designer finishes and colours reminiscent of autumn foliage characterise the tasting room, where the view stretches out towards the terrace overlooking the spectacular vineyard currently undergoing conversion to organic farming. Here, alongside native grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Albana, Famoso, Malbo Gentile and Pignoletto, international varieties such as Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay are also cultivated.
Our winery was born from the dream of a man who carries his land in his heart, the land that saw him born, grow and flourish, and which he caresses every day with respect and passion. Here, wine is not just a product: it is a ritual, a gesture of love that follows the slow breath of the seasons and the embrace of nature. Those who work in the winery are guardians of a precious heritage, where wine is born of sweat and hope, and grows amid trust and harmony. In this small but great family, every voice is heard and every step is shared.
Technology is not cold engineering, but a subtle breath that guides the path where time bends and wine takes shape. And so the past and the future intertwine, in an embrace of light and mystery, to give the world a sip of eternity. We use the most modern technologies to ensure the preservation of the authenticity and organoleptic properties of our wines.
The winery and vineyard are located within a beautiful natural amphitheatre, an exceptional location that has already hosted several events related to wine tourism, such as concerts and open-air cinema with tastings. The tasting room is open to offer guests a unique experience discovering our wines.
Every year, the land gives us two precious gems: wine and olive oil, the fruits of patient waiting and skilled hands, guardians of ancient knowledge handed down with care. When you cross the threshold of our winery, you are not simply tasting wines or oils, you are entering a story of life, emotions and deep roots. A piece of our home that becomes part of yours.
