The vineyards were planted on a hilly terrain with medium slope, particularly suitable with an exposure to the south, characterized by a favorable microclimate, a strong thermal excursion between day and night and mitigated by the winds coming from the south. The vineyards are bred mainly on a espalier with pruning in Guyot, they grow on a clayey marl soil that gives the wine particular characteristics such as structure, longevity and softness, which give the taste complex olfactory and taste sensations.
