Information:

95 hectares of top vineyards in Lugana and Valpolicella’s “classic zone.” Two faces: One white, the other red, both emblems of high-quality wines that are born through a visceral passion for the land, through respect for time, through a family tradition that has championed local grape varieties for more than 60 years.

1960 – San Benedetto di Lugana. It’s here that the heart of Sergio Zenato started to beat. His story is made of passion and hard work; a deep connection to his land and his people; entrepreneurial ability and openness to innovation and new vinification techniques and investment in native grape varieties.

A story that stretches from the banks of Lake Garda to the hills of nearby Valpolicella where the estate’s reds are born from sunny vineyards of Corvina and Rondinella in Costalunga in Sant’Ambrogio commune.

Wine making:

The grapes, after harvesting and careful selection, are left to rest in the drying loft for a period of between 3 and 4 months in crates, taking care over the spacing between the bunches to promote the correct drying. The dried grapes are then pressed and macerated in the skins for 15-20 days at a temperature of 23-25°C. The new wine is aged in oak casks for a minimum period of 36 months.
