It perfectly reflects the terroir from which it comes, where the minerality and elegance of the soils complement the power and grace of the international grape varieties that find their best expression here. The vines face southwest, on soil composed mainly of clay and gravel, with a small proportion of sand. More than 7,000 plants per hectare in spurred cordon system and a maniacal attention to detail allow for a limited production, a perfect synthesis of the incredible landscape from which it springs and the appellation it represents. Its name represents the path taken by the winery, which, on the strength of the experience it has acquired, decides to enhance the grapes from the younger vineyards in this Bolgheri Doc, a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc that with readiness and ease remain faithful to the Bolgheri terroir.
