The winery incorporates 135 families as grower members and has an exceptional reputation for high quality white wines. The special microclimate of this region, with hot summer days and fresh nights at vintage time, makes sure that the grapes reach maturity with a high sugar content. The light and gravelly soils, containing deal of minerals, provide these wines with strong character and incomparable typicality and elegance. This is why the vine-growers of the Valle Isarco have specialized in the cultivation of white grapes, it is the ideal climate for these local grape varieties.

"The 2021 Grüner Veltliner wafts up remarkably fresh and airy, mixing crushed stone with minty herbs and hints of chlorophyll. It’s deeply textural, almost oily in feel, yet salty and savory as well, resulting in a sensation of umami within. Tart green apple and mineral tones linger incredibly long as the 2021 tapers off lightly-structured yet fresh. While this could use a little more time to develop aromatically, it’s full of short-term cellar potential." Vinous Media, 91 Points
