The vineyards of Tracce di Sassi, Conte di Luna, and Rocca die Portici are located on sunny, steep southern slopes and terraced vineyards on the right bank of the River Ticino near Gudo, between Sementina and Cugnasco. The soils are light and sandy. The aim is to find the best possible balance between each individual vine and the quantity produced. Between 400 and 600 g of grapes are picked per square metre, with the average age of the vines being 30 years.
The terraced vineyards of Soma and Sita are located above Lake Maggiore in Vairano. Due to the headland headland in front of them, the vineyard receives up to 10% more sun than in other areas and is bathed in sunshine from morning to evening. Here, too, we focus on quality rather than quantity and reduce the yield to a maximum of 1 kg per vine.
The Temenos comes from Sauvignon grapes grown in elevated locations around Monte Ceneri and from traditional Swiss Completer grapes grown on steep slopes around Cugnasco.
The vineyards of Sera Fiorita (Rosato Cuvé, Merlot & Cabernet Sauvignon) are all located around Gudo. The total area covers 7 hectares, mainly steep slopes with gradients of up to 100%, which are cultivated without the use of machinery.
