The climate is mainly Mediterranean, influenced by the sea, although in winter it often reaches continental points. In spring and summer it is often marked by drought, which makes the environment particularly suitable for growing vines, since it has an enormous tolerance for excessive heat, since it has a highly developed root system capable of reaching great depths.

One of the most important climatic factors for the cultivation of vines is water, which actively participates in the metabolism and plays a prominent role in the distribution of mineral components in grapes.
The company's vine yards currently in production, implanted from 12 to 15 years ago (for a totale of 15 hedtares) after a careful analysis of all the pedo-climatic factors, were carried out with the aim of producing quality grapes, ensuring ZERO RESIDUE in the bottle.

The grapes of 1788 are carefully selected already from the post-setting phase with the pruning of the grape fruits in excess. Late harvest and manual at the end of October, after a slight drying of the grape on the plant. The production of this bottle is limited by the small number of grapes destined for this process. Long maceration and aging for 12 months in French oak barrels enhance the complexity and structure of this wine.



The grapes of D.H.E.S. are carefully selected already from the post-setting phase with the pruning of the grape fruits in excess. Late harvest and manual in the middle of september, after a slight drying of the grape on the plant. The production of this bottle is limited by the small number of grapes destined for this process. Long maceration and aging for 12 months in French oak barrels enhance the complexity and structure of this wine.



Nero di troia single variety produced in our vineyards in the contrada of Grassano delle Fosse. The careful management of our vineyard, the caring harvest, the assiduous effors to winemaking and the scrupulous ageing in steel tanks complete our idea for this wine.



Winemaking and firt aging in steel, slight passage in french barriques for three months, this is our idea for this primitivo. Intense red color with purple reflection. Typical hints of this grape variety, such as cherry, plum, overripe fruit, light notes of wood.



The “Ti esti” is the inescapable starting point for any rational comparison that evades from the clichés and identifies, in the inebriating aromas and in the inspired taste of this Minutolo, a wine with a character as bizarre as unique.
