Sustainability

We firmly believe that our actions in the vineyard and in the cellar must have the least possible impact on our surrounding environment, for this reason we have decided to join the Biodiversity Friend protocol. We obtained in 2021 the BF certification on our Pressoni vineyard. What does Biodiversity friend mean and what actions are needed to protect the biodiversity? Protecting biodiversity today means commit ourself to the preservation of natural habitats, that translates into being “friends of biodiversity” and acting responsibly for sustainability.

Cantina del Castello

The historic cellar, located within the city walls of the Castle of Soave, is the heart of the winery, that operates in respect to the traditions and customs of its wines.
