TERROIR
Along the green corridor of the Calore River, on the fertile, deep, cool, calcareous, permeable, well-drained loamy-sandy soils, often mixed with pyroclastic dust, we produce the grapes for our classic method spumante. Thanks to these pristine river environments and the complexity of the soils, the freshness and elegance of this spumante, enhanced by its surprising longevity, is clearly evident.
