Vineyard and Winery

The vineyards unfold across the villages of Custoza, Sommacampagna and Valeggio sul Mincio, located just southeast of Lake Garda. The Superiore is made from a selection of the best parcels that are naturally lower yielding. The vines are Guyot trained and planted on the morainic hills, whose soils are mainly calcareous, gravelly, sandy and pebbly. Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Fernanda and Incrocio Manzoni are the main varieties cultivated here

All grape varieties are picked and crushed separately. Grapes were traditionally soft pressed, and underwent a cold maceration at prior to a slow fermentation at controlled temperatures, around 16°C . Ageing on lees occurred in stainless steel tanks, followed by time spent in medium-sized French oak barrels. The wine is bottled in early spring after harvest
