Vigna Petrussa is an historic farm located on the border with Slovenia and straddles the two most famous Doc in the region. The hills that surround the valley Judrio create a natural amphitheater and expose the area to air currents that make it particularly dry that favor the ripening of the grapes and their aroma. In this beautiful setting Hilde Petrussa, the third generation of a family of winemakers, helped by the oenologist Emilio Del Medico, heal with love and attention a little more than six hectares of vineyard, always with respect for tradition and local culture. 30 year old vines are mixed with new plants of Schioppettino. No fertilizing, grassing of the rows and careful canopy management are the foundations agricultural taxes by Carlo Petrussi, head of the vineyards of the winery. The wines of Vigna Petrussa born so rich in personality, looking for concentration and fatness through a slight drying of the grapes before fermentation. Wines that faithfully reflect the terroir on which come to life. A winery must to try.
