The expression of the wines comes from the two microzones Oltreadige and Bassatesina. The philosophy in the vineyard is aimed at the 3 lines I Vigneti, DeSilva and Amistar.In the DeSilva: old vines that have the aim of making only the expression of the land speak. Amistar: speaks of the expression of the family to remember the origins. A special dimension - in the fruit and in the palate they are underlined by the choice of partially dried grapes on the plant and by the selection of areas and special grapes that describe the White and Red Cuvèe. Signature wines.
