Vigna del Suolo: A Testament to Time and Terroir

Vigna del Suolo is crafted from our oldest vineyard, planted in 1965, where the soil consists of marl—ancient clay rich in limestone. This unique terroir imparts depth and complexity to the wine, making it a true reflection of its origins.

Aging Process

The wine undergoes a meticulous aging process:

12 months in 12 hl French oak oval barrels
12 months in Slavonian oak barrels
Bottled in April and May, aligned with the most favorable phases of the moon

This wine embodies timeless elegance and terroir-driven character, offering a truly unique expression of our vineyard’s heritage.
