VINEYARDS
Our vineyards are cared for and cultivated with methods that respect the harmonious balance between man and the environment, enhancing the delicate relationship between all the components involved. They extend over an area of approximately 25 hectares in the heart of Sannio Beneventano, in an area called "Vignole", which gives its name to the company.

During this period, not only the permanent collaborators, but also young local workers participate in the harvest, which always takes place in an atmosphere of joyful celebration. Every phase of the manufacturing process is still conducted and followed by the tireless founder, grandfather Gino.
RESPECT FOR THE EARTH
