THE LAND

The job of amplification and land improvement with the renovation of the vineyards ( begun by dad Angelo) suffers a clean acceleration and it continually progresses, till to reach in 1994 the amplification of the wine cellar and the acquisition of a farm of 11 Hectars in Arquà Petrarca commune: land not very deep, thin, but warm and generous, absorbed in the magic atmosphere of the Euganean Hills that has conquered the great Francesco Petrarca and recently the poetess Victoria Aganoor Pompilj.

Today the business dimension is of 40 Hectars of which 25 are in vineyard for more than the half in ownership and the rest is in rent; the olive-grove is well represented as the wood and the permanent lawns are rich of spontaneous flora of great naturalistic interest.

The business center with the wine cellar and the "historical" vineyards looks from the top the Faedo valley.

Besides the grounds in Cà Lustra and the Arquà Petrarca estate denominated "GIRAPOGGIO", other farms are also cultivated: Costa Verde, Belvedere, Villa Alessi, Sottovenda, Tére Bianche, Peraréto, Monte Cinto and Monte Versa. Their small areas have particular pedological characteristics and exposureand; they also constitute an important territorial diversification for a rational position of the different varieties that can fully express their characteristics.



So, in Faedo valley we find first of all white grapes, cause of ground deep and coolness.

Red grapes are instead on Monte Cinto,Monte Versa and Arquà, where the sun "beats" and the calcareous earth (that is poor, well exposed in a tipic Mediterranean climate) assembles the strength of the solar light and the heat, transmitting her to the grape and therefore to the wine.
