Description

In the range of Valpolicella wines, this is the starting point because of its simplicity but precisely because of this it mirrors the winemaker’s style.

Valpolicella is the calling card of a winery. It is from there that one starts to better orient oneself in going to the other wines. Only those who know how to make a good Valpolicella can make great wines.

We have moved in the wake of tradition, valuing the legacy of past generations. Sometimes we ventured new combinations and new solutions. It has been a slow, strenuous growth, with some disappointments, but overall very fulfilling. In it we have tried to cultivate a project of our own that would bring out the identity of our land and our character.
