Vineyard: These are single vineyards wines. The vineyards are pieces of a colourful mosaic that make up and sum up the volcanic area of Soave Classico. This territory was formed from about 65 to 20 million years ago, at the start of the Tertiary period. In this area covered by a vast tropical ocean, intense volcanic activity developed underwater and, subsequently, subaerial. Fittà: The vineyard, covering about one hectare, is located at the heart of the Fittà U.G.A., not far from the hamlet of the same name. Part of it is situated in the south and part in the east, at an elevation of 255m above sea level, with slopes ranging from 15% to 45%. The old Garganega vines, planted in the early 1940s, grow on volcanic soil whose substratum is made up of strongly altered basalt vulcanite. Castellaro: The vineyard consists of a small plot of less than one hectare, facing north on the slope of the ridge rising from Monte Castellaro towards the hamlet of Fittà. It is located at an elevation of 220 m above sea level, with 20% slopes. The volcanic soil consists of altered basalt vulcanite, moderately deep and with a profile rich in rock fragments. The Garganega vines are Pergola Veronese trained and, on average, 50 years old. U.G.A.: Tremenalto: 2h in size, 80m to 130m above sea level with western exposure. The vines were lanted in 1962.
