Marco Capra - TASTING KIT
A small family-run winery where the art of viticulture is a wealth that has been passed down from generation to generation. The quality that sets our wine apart is determined by the control we have over the entire supply chain: from the vine to the bottle, through processes that adhere to tradition while embracing the innovation that distinguishes modern companies.
We favor native wines, the result of the best synergy between grape variety and territory. Our production is limited to fully realize the potential of our vineyard.
