Experience information
For the most passionate wine enthusiasts, we offer the opportunity to actively follow the various stages of the vine throughout the year, starting from pruning, then moving on to vineyard cleaning, tying, trimming, green pruning, and finally harvesting, in order to fully learn and understand the work done to optimize vineyard yield and achieve the best possible grape production.
There will also be a step-by-step explanation of the vine's vegetative cycle, which will help understand why and how different operations are performed. We emphasize that working outdoors, learning new techniques, getting your hands dirty, engaging in physical activity, and being in contact with nature provides both mental and physical benefits. A person's self-esteem grows as they complete small, simple goals, effectively contributing to their growth while maintaining traditions and learning the history and work of Valtellina viticulture.
This activity is also open to school activities
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.
