Good wine is made in the vineyard: you need to know how to listen to and respect the vineyard.
“I have always been a farmer, I know the vineyard perfectly and I know what each variety needs to express its best.
I chose to cultivate Sauvignon in a plot that has all the characteristics to give life to an aromatic and fruity wine, just the way I like it.”
The Sauvignon It is a white grape variety, it comes from the French area of Bordeaux and currently one of the most common in the world. He entered South Tyrol towards the end of the 19th century where, in recent years, he has been able to conquer an important part of the territory. It is a semiaromatic grape, from which wines with a more or less intense straw yellow color are born with floral and fruity notes and typical scents of freshly cut grass, gooseberries, nettles, musk and elderberry.
