Host information
8 and a half hectares of vineyards, divided into 40 plots distributed over the territory of Chiuro, Teglio, Ponte, Tresivio, Poggiridenti and Sondrio.
80% of the production of grapes is conferred, while the rest is vinified, divided into different types, in its own cellar, built in 2008.
There, the first processing phases are carried out after the harvest and the first racking. In the historical centre of the village there is also a second cellar where the wine is aged in barriques and tonneaux.
The birth of the farm has allowed the tasting of the types of our wines accompanied by dishes of the territory and not, using seasonal products that we grow in a garden a few meters from the farm.
Here you will be greeted by a warm and familiar atmosphere in a living room with wooden coffered ceiling carved by hand and other carved wooden works that create a striking setting where taste and art come together in a perfect combination.
