Grapes come from selected calcareous vineyards, rich in minerals, which provide the wine’s signature saline freshness and mineral tension.

Meticulous vine care and respect for natural cycles ensure healthy, aromatic grapes capable of fully expressing the terroir’s unique character.

Minimal intervention in the cellar highlights the purity of the fruit and the terroir’s personality.
