About Winery and Wines

The Tessari winery is located in the most prized area of the Soave appellation: the Classic area of Monteforte d'Alpone. All its vineyards are cultivated by limiting intervention in the soil and favouring the natural biodiversity of the environment or in organic cultivation. Monteforte d'Alpone is the municipality with the highest density of vineyards in all of Italy: the view from these hills is breathtaking. The autochthonous vineyard is the Garganega, the only vine used by the Tessari family, which has been cultivated since the 1930s using the unilateral Veronese pergola system: a system now in extinction that guarantees protection of the grapes from the summer sun. The siblings Antonio, Germano and Cornelia, followed by the experience of their father Aldo and the ever-watchful eye of their mother Bianca, take care of all the phases of wine production: from the harvest to the vinification and marketing abroad, maintaining an unaltered respect for tradition and a passion for the art of wine-making.

The vineyards, with an extension of about 13 hectares, have an average age of 40 years and are characterised by a volcanic and clayey soil with predominantly basaltic soils, rich in mineral substances, whose notes can be distinctly perceived in the final product. The average altitude is about 150 metres and the exposure is towards the east and south-east, in a cool microclimate characterised by good temperature ranges between day and night.
