THE VINEYARDS
A taste of nature among the Piave vineyards!
It all started in the “Piave”, on our land, in our vineyards, which we have always worked with enthusiasm and great respect for the environment.
The secret of the marked personality of our wines, of their heady bouquets and elegant fresh, fruity notes lies in the mild temperate climate and in the particular conformation of the land, mainly clayey and rich in mineral salts, brought about over the centuries by the periodic flooding of the Piave, a rebellious, fickle river.
Alongside modern row cultivation systems from more recent eras, we also adopt the more traditional “Bellussere” radial system, already in used throughout our district in 1880, the living testimony of the love that links us to the past and our culture.
Let’s cultivate Sustainability!
With our SQNPI Quality Certification, we belong to the National Integrated Production Quality System (SQNPI).
We work hard in our vineyards, following strict Production Guidelines, to guarantee the quality and genuineness of our grapes, protecting the natural equilibrium of the ecosystem and our land.
The Piave, the sacred river of the homeland
At times subdued, at times fierce and often insidious due to its currents that they say have smoothed its people like the pebbles on its riverbed, the River Piave, flows away from the Conegliano hills and opens out into the wide expanses of the lowland, headed towards the sea.
In 1917, during World War I, it was the site of the battle fought to stop the Austrian enemy who, with the famous retreat of Caporetto, threatened to occupy the Valley. From here the literary personification of “River that defends the Homeland”.
On its peaceful quiet banks, it is wonderful to observe the typical plants and traditional trees that line the river, which shelter a lively throng of hares, pheasants and birds of all kinds. A must-visit for all nature lovers!
