The Vineyard takes its name from the farmhouse situated at its heart. The hillside cru is distinctive for its little steep sided valleys. Sizeable rock faces alternate with terracing supported by some of the highest dry stone walls in Valtellina. The special color of the rock tending towards a quartz like white augments considerably the power of the sun leading to greater temperatures and light than in other parts of the valley so bringing out the fruitiness of the wine.
