Technical remarks
|
The name Sagrà is linked to a particular piece of land on our estate, located in the highest part of the hills. This soil rich in micro elements has been known since ancient times as valuable for growing grapes to make top quality wine. Besides their special agronomic characteristics, the excellent quality of these grapes comes from the old indigenous vines kept with loving care and passion by Damiano Cavaliere. These old varieties give wine that features strong aromas, wonderful elegance and flavour. The grapes are picked by hand when they have reached the ideal ripeness to make this prestigious sparkling wine. |
