Today Rosanna & Pino carry on this family tradition of caring for their land and making wine from native local varieties. Microclimatic conditions, land that is on a prehistoric seabed, with soil that is part calcareous, sub-alkaline and stone contribute to making structured yet approachable wines. They adopt organic farming principles in the context of integrated agriculture approach and guarantee no trace of chemicals, copper and sulfur in their wines.
