An extraordinary amphitheatre created by nature and adorned with the Villa and the romantic Italian style garden, Jago is a historical cru vineyard next to the old cellars and the lofts.
Rows of vines spread over sweet hills not far from the winery.
Figari, in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica, is an old farmhouse, witnessing the story of this cru vineyard.
The redemption of a unique place: a vineyard at a high altitude in the hills, sorrounded by woods. A perfect balance between the works of nature, first, and the works of man, secondly.
Soil composition is important in order to decide the growing system on a vineyard.
The life cycle of vines and grapes needs a lot of care and handy work, know how and a deep knowledge of the territory.
Every vineyard has a different sun exposure and soil composition. In order to save and express the terroir identity, grapes are harvested and fermented separately.
The indigenous varieties of the Valpolicella are ideal for the drying. That's a successful process making our land well known.
The process of letting the basic Valpolicella referment on the pomaces left from the production of Recioto and Amarone gives character to the wine, makes it smoother and richer in scents of fruits and spices.
The care for the grapes in the vineyard goes on in the cellar: people work together, by respecting and praising what nature put in the berries.
Strolling through the vineyards of Villa Spinosa you can explore the connection between the efforts of man and the works of nature.
