We train our expertise and winemakers’ sensitivity, while looking after every detail. That’s the style that makes our winery stand out.

We have always opted for the most natural and artisanal processing techniques. This commitment stems from continuous observation, patient waiting, and from the respect for the natural cycle followed by our plants. We know every vineyard, observe each of them in their unique growing season, and respect them.

We respect our land, the techniques, and the ancient knowledge that, along with continuous training, make our wine unique. We take care of the work that we do, aligned with the values of respect, inclusivity, fairness, and social well-being.

This is part of our philosophy and approach because what makes our wine great is the complete respect towards our territory. While working, we aim to reduce the interventions on the vineyard, and we use natural resources with care and consideration.

Wine making Some of the grapes remain in whole bunches when the wine begins fermenting. From the ones that are pressed, a small portion of unfermented must is immediately taken and frozen. After this, the wine ferments for around 15 days, with limited pump-overs and handling. At this point, the Freisa wine is left to rest in old wooden containers, without added sulphur, where it undergoes malolactic fermentation. Before racking, the sweet must is thawed and melted into the wine. The whole amount is then bottled. “Remuage” — a process essential for creating the typical fine bubbles felt on the palate⁠ — is carried out and the wine continues to ferment in the bottle.
Aging The bottles are stored vertically in a cool environment to ensure smooth in-bottle fermentation. This wine is best enjoyed chilled (10/12° C). It ages very well, as the natural carbon dioxide is the best-known antioxidant.
