This monumental vineyard, shaped like an amphitheatre in the middle of Monte Quarin, is one of the most recent but not the least important. On the contrary, it is one of the symbols of the winery, which has high hopes for its potential. Surrounded by woods, with less intense ventilation, exposed to the hot afternoon sun and more clayey soils, it is a vineyard suitable for a red grape variety such as Merlot. The resulting grape is powerful and alcoholic, with a lively acidity and fresh, intense aromas of cherry and black cherry.

This vineyard is also almost entirely surrounded by woods with an eastern exposure that provides hours of light, especially in the morning, ensuring that the vineyard enjoys prolonged illumination due to the low surrounding terrain, without high temperature peaks that could damage aromas and acidity. This is the optimal situation for producing a refined white wine with good acidity and minerality, complex and structured.
