Description

To describe a wine, it is necessary to decipher its origin – the landscape, the place, the environment from which it is born – in order to fully understand its nature. Villa Donoratico is a decidedly consistent and complex wine that never risks normality, demonstrating a character deeply linked to territory.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1999
  • Oenologist: Nicolò Carrara
  • Bottles produced: 480.000
  • Hectares: 85
The estate enjoys a privileged site, with its vineyards lying close to the shore yet at some of the highest elevations in the denomination, where sunlight, marine breezes, and views out over the Tyrrhenian Sea meld together into a limitless landscape of magnificent elements. An enchanted creation of nature, where the distinctive characteristics of each vineyard find their most harmonious and effective expression.

The name Argentiera derives from ancient silver mines, whose traces are preserved by the history ’s pen since the Etruscans. The Etruscan civilisation developed the peninsula’s first metallurgy, and their far-trading ships brought the art of metalworking to the remote corners of the flourishing archaic Greek settlements.

The estate extends over 153 hectares and embraces a one-of-a-kind biodiversity, a fundamentally important biological mosaic that allows the vineyards to flourish to their optimum extent, protected from insects, harmful animals, and climate-change stress.
