Short description:
This is the story of a northern Italian family to which the exaltation of passion inherited from generations of winemakers, has created an adventure culminated in the installation of new vineyards in the wine growing area of Lechinta, enchanted land in the heart of Transylvania.
Lands of strong wine vocation that find their celebration in the great and historic tradition of the Grands Crus Saxon. We are at the Carpathian foothills, unspoilt area of a strong naturalistic impact.
The Lechinta zone is a wine-growing area of small extent but with a strong tradition specialised since the XIII century thanks to the people of Saxon originated from the Rhine Valley and the Moselle.
The winery was built and launched in 1962, it guaranteed the production and storage of 20,000 hectoliters of wine intended for the wine cooperative doc Lechinta.
It was later purchased by us at the beginning of 2015.
The main characteristic of our cellar is the processing: it takes place using the principle of gravity throughout the productive cycle.
The building has four levels: ground floor, basement and two underground.
In our cellar the DOC certified organic wines mature: 80% of white wine and 20% of red wine.
Our philosophy is the right balance between tradition and progress which is essential to obtain important wines.
The concrete tanks recovered and renovated along with the technological input are the perfect symbol of integration between old and new.
