About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from vineyards around Colle San Lorenzo, on the shore of Lake Garda in Veneto. The soils are predominantly clay and limestone. Grapes have been cultivated on the hill by monks for many centuries.

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented at a controlled temperature.

Ageing

The wine matures in oak barrels for at least one year.

Tasting profile

Elegant.

Label / history

The Colle San Lorenzo name refers both to San Lorenzo hill and to the monastery at its summit. The brand logo shows its name alongside an arc representing the hill.
