The grapes are picked exclusively by hand. After a short period of contact with the skins, the delicate crushing of the grapes follows. Controlled temperature fermentation and aging for 10 months on the fine lees takes place partly in in stainless steel tanks, partly in large wood barrels.

The Isarco Valley offers one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in Alto Adige, with its majestic mountains dotted by alpine farmhouses, castles, monasteries, villages, magnificent chestnut groves and, above all, terraced vineyards enclosed within neat low stone walls. The people are accustomed to working the predominantly steep mountain slopes, tending their vineyards at heights of up to 950m. It is primarily, this variety that commands respect and keeps alive the valley people’s attachment to their unique natural surroundings.
