The story
The Zavalloni family has cultivated vineyards on the hills of Madonna dell'Olivo, near Cesena, for generations; the estate's website and local sources indicate that the family's winemaking tradition dates back to the mid-19th century and that the estate is now run by the sixth generation.
Production philosophy
It combines family tradition with modern cellar techniques: manual vineyard care, attention to the terroir and integrated protection practices. The stated aim is to produce wines that honestly convey the character of Romagna while maintaining good value for money.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards located on the hills of Madonna dell'Olivo, on medium-textured, clay-leaning soils. The area benefits from the influence of the nearby Adriatic Sea, which creates a breezy, relatively dry microclimate.
