Twenty-four acres of cru vineyards in the Soave area atop Foscarino hill, on south facing slopes 1,140 feet above sea level. The soil is volcanic tuff with grass undergrowth and the vines are trained using the horizontal spurred cordon method.

Wine maker notes

Immediately following harvest, grapes are de-stemmed and undergo cold maceration and a soft pneumatic pressing. After a temperature-controlled fermentation, the wine matures sur lie for six months in steel vats, with regular battonage. Once bottled, the wine rests an additional six months before release.
