Vendemmia Tardiva
Orvieto Classico Superiore DOC
Vendemmia Tardiva is a tribute to our terroir’s suitability to the production of sweet wines. A wine with the taste of tradition, from autochthonous grape varieties and age old techniques. A late harvest when the
grapes reach the maximum maturity to

giving rise to a sweet wine with the
flavour of antiquity.
