The vineyard is situated in IGT Venezia Giulia at 100 metres above sea level. It has a south-facing, sunny orientation with gentle coastal breezes from the Adriatic Sea, which keeps the vines dry and healthy. The Alps help to protect the vineyards from cold, northerly winds. Warm days and cool nights offer the perfect combination to allow slow maturation of the grapes, maintaining a beautiful balance between natural acidity and sugar levels. The 20-year-old Ribolla Gialla vines are spur cordon and Guyot trained and are planted at a density of 4,800 per hectare. The vines are carefully managed throughout the viticultural year, yielding 95 quintals yearly. They are grown in 'Ponca', the Eocene soil of the Colli Orientali del Friuli, which is rich in sandstone with alternating layers of marl. The meticulously selected bunches are harvested in small cases during the morning when the northerly breeze has dried the light veil of nocturnal humidity.
