THE ENVIRONMENT

Grapes and wines of personality and character owe their quality to the producer's deep knowledge and understanding of a given area , its underground and its prevailing climate. Colli Euganei can be considered as an open-air geology teaching room: here you will find very peculiar volcanic phenomena identified by fair siliceous rocks often mixed with calcareous rocks from different ages.
Also the climate is different from that of the rest of Veneto: we benefit of near-Mediterranean temperatures, with fewer rains and longer hours of sunshine. This ideal picture for the production of wine is completed by the most important concentration of hot springs and of geothermical activity in the whole of Europe.

CA' LUSTRA is located in a hilly landscape, to the slope of Monte Venda, the highest of the Euganean Hills, where Faedo Valley starts: one of the most complete valleys of the protected area of the Euganean Hills Regional Park.

Here, in Faedo village,a particular mild climate invites the wine-growers of the place to take care the agricoltural activity.

Grapes and olive-grove,the chestnut tree and the cherry, have marked the story, the culture, local people hard-working life that has wisely shaped an harmonic agricultural landscape that induce the visitors to dip in a unique and unforgettable atmosphere.
