Our choice of screw caps started from research related to the longevity of wine. Still in use today, this kind of cap was adopted in the United States and New Zealand many years previously, so out of curiosity we began experimenting with our white wines. Otto, our Soave Classico DOC, was the first to have its closure changed, and then, year after year, we changed all of them, ending with our crus.
After many years of observation, bottle ageing and tastings of older vintages, we are now certain that the screw cap is the best choice for ageing and preserving our white wines. It is the answer we had been seeking for a long time, the answer to our desire to produce good, faultless, clean and elegant wines over time.
Choosing the right closure for our wines is an essential step in our search for excellence. Screw caps, which protect and preserve wine, guarantee ageing that does not depend on the closure, but rather on the characteristics of the terroir, the vintage, and the touch of the vine grower.
