Spezza is the name of a vineyard that interrupts (or breaks) the larger vines surrounding it. Here, the rocks are evident both on the surface and underground, ensuring excellent drainage for a vital, cool, and dry soil where the symbiosis between the vine and the soil is best expressed. Cultivation is guided by natural and physiological criteria for more sustainable agronomic management. This wine is aged 18 months in French oak barriques and then completed in the bottle.
The spread of this grape variety dates back to the second half of the 19th century. Its cultivation gradually expanded not only because it found ideal soil and climate conditions but also because of the strong appreciation of its wine, destined for both the local and national markets.
