For three generations the Carlotto family has dedicated itself with love and passion to the wine world, first Umberto Carlotto as a5sharecropper in the Schloβhof company in Mazzon, at Castel Caldiff where for 50 years he cultivated the vineyards, owned by his brother and son Ferruccio of the Praxmarer family. The turning point came in 2000 when Ferruccio Carlotto, together with his daughter Michela, began to vinify the grapes produced on their own with faithful and precise application of good country and cellar practices handed down over the years, in order to keep the characteristics of the place intact in the wine. ‘origin. The company philosophy is “to cultivate the right vine in the right place” and create value to be transmitted.

The pinot noir grapes are grown on a calcareous soil of fluvial-glacial origin, rich in skeleton with an average clay content of 15%. Fermentation and maceration take place for a period of about ten days, during which pumping over and punching down are carried out daily. The malolactic fermentation takes place in oak vats. Subsequently the wine matures and is refined for twelve months in large barrels and barriques. This period is followed by assembly in large wooden and steel barrels for two / three months before bottling. The wine matures for six months in the cellar before being marketed.
