It is very intense, broad and fine. Instantly some evidences are balsamic scents , almost iodine, carried by the remarkable alcohol power, giving way later to the characteristical aroma of ripe cherries, plums, berries, spiced with star anise, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, vanilla and ginger. Tertiary perfumes of cocoa, chocolate, goudron, almonds, toasted hazelnut and pipe tobacco.

  • Bottles produced: 2.000.000
  • Hectares: 150
We are 4 brothers with a deep knowledge of vines and their territory. Our dream was born among our father’s vineyards, in the heart of Valpolicella. It has rural origins and strong ambitions. It leads us to take the utmost care for the wine we produce at every processing stage. With a very clear intention: the pursuit of excellence.

Our vineyards extend between Soave and Valpolicella, noble territories with different characteristics and personality. These are territories where we know the terrain inside out, where the sun shines and when the shade comes so that we can rest for a while. This is our land and we love it.
