Corvèe
Lagrein Passocroce Trentino DOC 'Corvèe'
The Passocroce vines are located in a place of choice for the cultivation of Lagrein on the slopes of Cembra: set on the eastern side of the historic site of Doss Caslìr (Cembra 638 m asl), it enjoys a happy South-East exposure . The loamy-sandy soil, with a good supply of clay, originating from lateral morainic deposits following the disintegration of the local porphyries, favors a natural advance of ripening of the grapes
