The best wineries in Parma.
Crossed by the ancient Via Francigena, which in the Middle Ages brought pilgrims from Canterbury to Rome, and surrounded by two national parks, that of the River Taro and that of Carrega Woods, Monte delle Vigne is surrounded by the harmonious landscape of the rolling hills of Parma, about 250 meters above sea level. The ancient route taken by pilgrims is the boundary between the vineyards exposed to the east, Malvasia and Sauvignon, and the red ones of the west side, Barbera and Bonarde. On the plans, finally, you find Merlot, Chardonnay and characteristic Lambrusco and with them the new cellar, underground, with gravitational crushing, perfectly integrated in the surrounding environment and designed to achieve the highest quality result from what nature can offer.
Sixty hectares of vineyard in the heart of the DOC Colli di Parma, with exhibitions that allow the grapes on different sides of the privilege of a homogeneous and full ripening.
The company owes its name to a quote by Fr. Salimbene De Adam, a medieval chronicler, who in his chronicles indicates that this area just like “il Monti de le Vigne”. Rolling hills, smooth lines that descend from 300 meters to the right bank of the Taro. Deep soils, of marl, rich in calcium and clay, strongly mineral, which allow the vine to develop the structure, intensity and aromas. And finally, the climate, mild even in winter, while in summer the air that rises from the Taro creates sudden changes in temperature between day and night of 10 degrees, which is essential for producing wines of great finesse.
Azienda Agricola Lamoretti was founded in 1930 by "Uncle Joe" returning from the United States of America, with the initial installation of 2 hectares of vineyard in circuiting terraces, of Malvasia di Candia, white Moscato, Barbera, Bonarda, Cabernet Sauvignon, Marzemino and Sangiovese varieties.
The vineyard area of the company remained unchanged until 1964 when, with the contribution of Isidoro Lamoretti new systems (no longer in circuiting terraces) were realized, followed by others in 1967, 1971, 1976, 1983, 1988, 2003 and 2004 to get the current extension of about 20 hectares.
Isidoro Lamoretti was the promoter of the establishment of the Voluntary Consortium for the Protection of the Colli di Parma wines at the end of the 70s, to coincide with the introduction of the most modern winemaking techniques in the Company.
Placed in one of the most evocative areas of Colli di Parma, where the hills are the shield of the splendid manor of Torrechiara, the Carra di Casatico farm dilutes the rigor of its landscape with the vineyards and the winery located in just one area.
The serene silence of the valley brings the flavors of long preserved traditions, which constitute the most significant taste of the wines that the Carra company produces and sells.
Those who want to enjoy our products can go directly to the winery or consult specialist stores. The sale to the large distribution is not made.
This choice was determined by reasons related to the quality of the products themselves.
The quantities do not justify, in effect, a large distribution. Wine is also sold in the carboy.
The vineyards of the company rest on the first hills that overlook the fertile Po Valley, between 220 meters and 300 meters above sea level.
The quality of the soil, silty–clay, its optimum slope for good drainage and the orientation of the rows, that enjoy a sweet sun exposure, create the ideal conditions for the maturation of a healthy and scented fruit, the main secret of the great wines of Ariola.
The 70 hectares of land of the Ariola company are divided into the characteristic varieties of grapes blends of the place, white grapes of Malvasia, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, the red ones of Lambrusco, Cabernet, Merlot, Bonarda and Fortanina.
The strong personality of the grapes and the peculiarities of the production techniques give rise to a wide range of wines.
It is an emotion to us, as in the past edition, to award this rare expression of Lambrusco.
Camillo Donati manages completely by hand his 14 hectares of land cultivated with vines, together with his niece Monia.
