About Winery and Wines
Four hundred years in the vineyard and an infinite passion for wine. In the Adige Valley, the history of the Armani family and that of viticulture have walked together since December 7, 1607. It is a collective history, which from that moment takes the name of a family.
From the constant study of the history and origins of a place and its wines, to research on native varieties, the recent history of Albino Armani is written under the sign of respect for the territory and the people who live there. We believe that research is the necessary process to return places always better than how we found them, and to create from the earth its most identifying product.
Today, as always, we work imagining an increasingly sustainable future, where the quality of the product is the perfect consequence of human knowledge and responsibility. Because tradition alone is not enough.
Albino Armani Winery belongs to high-altitude territories by choice, for generations, places that we know and in which we recognize ourselves. In the mountains and in the high hills, there are our people, our language, the pride of the looks of those who understand us. We have always pursued the development of that courageous land that is the pre-mountain hill. We are of these lands as are the stones, the rivers, the plants, and we are born to pass on their knowledge and to return their harmonies, scents, and teachings.
Sustainability for our family is an ancient value, which in other times would have been called wisdom or common sense. We believe in the virtuous integration of environmental, social and economic sustainability. Respect for places and for the community is at the center of our vision, in a constant search that finds its deepest meaning in the enrichment and protection of the ecosystem and the people who have always inhabited it.
Since the 1980s, we have been researching and investing in some ancestral varieties: the “Conservatoria” vineyard hosts 13 of them, among the hundreds that have now disappeared. Two of them have returned to production and have been included in our catalog for many years. We have more than 30 vintages of Foja Tonda in bottles, splendidly preserved: it proves to be a wine with immense potential, and it would have been absurd to lose it forever, as well as the Nera dei Baisi, an ancient grape of which we are the only holders.
