It is the vineyard that dictates the quality of our wines, and that includes an accurate survey of the soil, which in this area varies from vineyard to vineyard; the search for both clones and rootstocks that can produce high-quality results; and the way the site is exposed to sunlight, an all-important factor affecting flavours and aroma. Keeping all this in mind, every year four hectares of soil are planted, mainly with traditional varieties from the hills around Piacenza. Only the latest grafting and training methods are used, to the detriment of quantity, but to the unquestionable benefit of quality, for the wines produced are rich in colour and flavours, refined, elegant, full of body and character.
