Bolla Soave Classico Rétro not only draws on the style of the historical nineteen-sixties Bolla label, but it is also created using the procedures of a winemaking tradition worth saving. It comes from historical hillside vineyards, on mineral-rich volcanic soils. It is obtained from 100% Garganega grapes derived from natural selections generating the so-called "old vines", which produce straggly and light clusters with characteristic golden berries when ripe.
Tufaie takes its name from the Tufa Stone found in the hills surrounding the city of Verona, which were used to build its famed basilicas and ancient roman theater. The minerality expressed by the tufaceous marl of the ancient volcanic soils in the vineyards of the classic zone gives character to Tufaie, a "Soave Superiore." A prolonged fermentation period and extended yeast contact add to the wine's complexity and richness.
