It all started by accident, maybe fate as the best of the meetings, but I think it also depends STRONG WILL, from believing in the land and its potential, and in knowing how to take the best expressions of nature.

The company is based in the center of Faedo, where Mattia grew up and first became
passionately involved in wine and wine-making. Driven by this sense of vocation, he
studied oenology and then worked in some of the most famous viticulture areas in the
world. With the acquired experience, he decided to rent a hectare-sized vineyard south of
the city of Trento, in a famed grape-growing area called Casteller. He fell in love with the
rare and highly particular grape variety known as Il Poggio – also known to some people
as Vigneto Tempio (or Temple Vine) – given the energy it transmits.
With the help of Rossella Marino Abate – a wine-making expert from Marsala – Matteo
produces two wines, Under The Sky and Equinotium, using the best Cabernet
Sauvignon grapes, and adopting methods based on sustainable process, intense focus
on raw materials and devotion to absolute quality.
Having thus invested in a Trentino terroir famed for its noble and well-matured reds, he
then turned his attention to the renowned white wines grown around Faedo – among the
most revered Trentino wines – making wine with the grapes from his family’s vineyards.
These are located at an altitude of 600 meters on steep slopes. The Chardonnay vineyard,
in the area of Palai bassi-Molini, growing on the land of the old town mine, is used to
make Augusto Primo Cuvée, a sparkling wine created using the Brut Nature classic
method, aged for 44 months on the lees.
The vineyard in the Portadon area is employed to make the classic wine, pride of Faedo,
the Müller Thurgau called Xurfus, the latest addition to the company’s range.
