  • "Knowing how to wait for the exact moment to pick the fruit, to squeeze it, to decide when and how to transform it first into must and then into wine. Watching over the conditions in which, over a long period of time, matures and refines until it becomes one of our wines, asking it, at this point, to enter the bottle and leave the places where it was born and grew up, ready to meet the world.

    I was not born a winemaker, but by choice it has become my life.

    From the hustle and bustle of modern times in which I was raised, I have learned how fundamental it is for a winemaker to be able to observe, wait and watch over everything that surrounds them: nature."

  • Paolo's organic vineyard unique his land presents a very articulated terrain, with significant variations both in soil composition and in slopes and exposures, as well as underground aquifers. Layers of clay and fossil limestone alternate, and are very important for the vitality of the body of the wines, while the presence of chalk and sandstone contribute to their elegance and longevity.

    The rows of vines in the organic vineyard follow the sloping plane of the hills and expose the vines mainly towards the south/south-east, offering optimal exposure to the sun and encouraging ventilation.
 Salty air currents from the nearby Mediterranean bring rainfall from the sea and groundwater, completing this unique ecosystem.
