Established winegrowers, in business already in 1751, when wine was a relief from an effort that seemed hopeless. Good years, encouraging stimuli, giving "time to time". Interpreting the climate – vines disposed in the sun, the wind that blows from Lake Garda and that ideally connects remote areas: the low Sarca with the hills of Pressano di Lavis, a breeze tamed by the Brenta Dolomites and the Paganella – and adapting the territory. Where now the new generations of the Cesconi family work with renewed enthusiasm. Respecting the character of our ancestors.
Here, then, there are the vineyards adjacent to the new winery, on a slope projected into the Cembra Valley, orderly and accurate rows, embedded in the protected landscape typical of Paganella, the mountain symbol of a highly suited to vine Trentino region. And then – in respect of individual environmental peculiarities and agronomic choices made by the family – the vine rows of the estate of Drò, in the Valley of Lakes, are mitigated by the nearby Lake Garda and are ideally united to Pressano by the healing power of the Ora: the afternoon wind that rises from the shores of Lake Garda.
Two zones, different, are deliberately cultivated to produce equally diverse wines. The white grape varieties are planted only on the slopes at high altitude, lands raised by atavistic confluences between the rivers Adige and Avisio. And the vines reserved to long–lived red wines, deep–rooted in clay plants, silt and sand of glaciations linked to Lake Garda.
Two wine realities that are so different as to be unique.
As unique is the passion for winemaking of the Cesconi family.
