Description
"Di ora in ora" is a wine made from Lagrein grapes that ripen at Ora, on the alluvial soil of the Rio Nero. Being a variety with medium late-ripening requires warm areas but what makes the difference is the soil. The alluvial nature, rich in the skeleton, means that during the maturation period (end of September - beginning of October) the rains do not cool down too much the soil, which certainly happens in more compact, colder soils such as clayey or loamy even if located in warmer areas.

In 2000 Ferruccio Carlotto, together with his daughter Michela, began to make their own wine from grapes produced with faithful and precise application of good practices of the countryside and winery handed down over the years, in order to maintain the characteristics of the place of origin in the wine. Our philosophy is: cultivate the right grape in the right place, give value and then transmit the area of cultivation.
We cultivate 6 hectares of land and we vinify three types of grapes: Lagrein (25%), Pinot Noir (70%) and Schiava (5%). Read more
