An open-minded “exercise de style”. This has always been the best way to describe our production philosophy. We like to interpret our work in the vineyard and in the winery as a unique and creative exercise, free from preconceived ideas or conditioning of any sort.
A family-run estate, carrying the same name of the small village where we live. Our wines convey the character of their terroir and of the people who make them with a creative-and consequently unique-imprint.
