Stefano Bellotti began as an eighteen year old in 1977, reclaiming the family farm where there was less than 1 hectare of vineyard in existing use. In addition to grapes, the estate has a diversified production of fruits, vegetables and cereals, and keeps a variety of farm animals.
The nose has aromas of aromatic herbs, hay, ripe yellow fruit, citrus fruits and a mineral slate note. The palate has pleasant freshness and a mineral finish.
