The vineyards grow on soils rich in calcareous clay, typical of the area between Desenzano and Peschiera del Garda, where the mild and breezy climate favors the balanced ripening of the grapes.\nThe result is a wine with a \u003cstrong\u003efresh, elegant, and harmonious\u003c\/strong\u003e profile, perfect for those seeking a white wine with great personality, yet easy to appreciate from the first sip.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n2024 was a year with a \u003cstrong\u003ebalanced climate\u003c\/strong\u003e, with a mild spring and a warm but not excessive summer.
