Story πŸ“–: Matteo Furlani is the fourth generation steward of his family’s steep Dolomite vineyards above the city of Trento. Matteo studied agronomy and learned winemaking directly from his father and grandfather, evolving their traditions toward a deeper natural approach. The vines are trained in the classic pergola trentina to handle the altitude, wind, and intense sunlight. Biodynamic preparations and chemical free farming define his philosophy, and the cellar is equally hands off with spontaneous fermentations in cement and steel.Β
