The story
The estate was acquired in the late 1980s; the first vintage and the founding of the Tenuta Sant'Antonio brand date back to 1995. In the early 2000s the winery facility was built on Monti Garbi, and in 2004 the project expanded with new vineyards and the creation of the SCAIA brand. In subsequent years the family developed further projects and consolidated its presence in the Soave and Valpolicella areas.
Production philosophy
A pursuit of wine quality and personality through careful vineyard work, targeted winemaking choices and a growing focus on more natural and sustainable practices; the TéLOS project explores low-intervention wines and vegan certifications for some labels.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards extend across the Soave and Valpolicella areas, with a climate moderated by Lake Garda and soils ranging from calcareous to volcanic depending on the subzone.
