Nestled on the eastern side of the classic Soave area, the Tessari brothers' estate is the fulcrum on which all production activity revolves. The vineyards extend for more than 40 hectares, especially in this area, which have been managed organically for decades, and are mostly dedicated to Garganega, but also red grape varieties.

LIFE - The estate is based in a seventeenth-century Venetian villa with an agricultural function, originally owned by the Buri family, acquired in the nineteenth century by Elena's great-grandfather, Sisto and Pietro Tessari. The three brothers, who took over the baton from their father Lorenzo, lead this business with great sensitivity and attention to nature.
