Discover our 150 hectares of integrated and ecological agriculture
150 hectares of integrated and ecological agriculture where our produce is grown in one of the most beautiful agricultural land reserves of Switzerland with all the respect nature itself deserves.
Every day our vines are cared for and treated with the greatest care and love, so that we can harvest the high-quality grapes every year, which are later processed into your wines. Whether Merlot, Kerner or Bondola - some of our vineyards are now 90 years old and carry the magnificent harvest of the Maggia Delta. The aromas gained from them promise pure drinking pleasure from Ticino! Cin Cin
