Vineyards

Our vineyards are located in the neighbouring municipalities of Pietra dé Giorgi and Mornico Losana. Each vineyard has a different type of soil, so it was possible to plant the grape varieties in the best soil for each of them.

Training method: Guyot.  We don’t use chemical  fertilizer and we don’t weed between the rows. The grass is mown  twice  during the summer and the cut grass is left on the ground as plant food.

In our winery we favour the good quality of the grapes  rather than the quantity of production so, during summer, we reduce the quantity of grape bunches per shoot in order to maximize the quality of production. To control diseases, we only use copper-based preparations and sulphur-based compounds
