The story
A family-owned business operating for several generations. In the 1980s the company underwent a quality-focused transformation that resulted in a concentration on single-varietal wines and single-vineyard selections.
Production philosophy
Showcase the terroir and individual parcels: separate vinification of historic vineyards, attention to vineyard sustainability and a quest for balance between power and finesse to express the character of the Isonzo Valley.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards located in the Isonzo River valley, on gravel-limestone plateaus characterized by local pebbles and notable diurnal temperature variations; the border location with Slovenia and proximity to the sea influence the climate and the ripening of the grapes.
