Producer:
All 30 hectares of vineyards of Cantina Suavia are located in the center of the Classic area of the Soave appellation .
It is an area made up of volcanic hills of high altitude that even reach 340 meters. Here, the hilly microclimate, which is cooler than the flat area of Soave and characterized by considerable temperature ranges combined with the high number of hours of sunshine , due to the optimal exposures offered by the hill, give great benefits to the vine.
