Pure air, snowy peaks
and extreme weather conditions.
Freshness...
Minerality...
Elegance...
Persistence...
transhumant
Borrowed from French transhumance, ultimately from Latin trans (“across, beyond”) + humus (“ground”).
The magic of winter transformation
of wine under the snow
"Thanks to an unrepeatable combination of environmental conditions, geological and microclimatic characteristics.
This is the framework in which our original wine aging process takes place.
Inspired by an ancient pastoral tradition, driven by passion and thanks to some technical solutions perfected over time, the Vini d'Altura are able to synthesize the purity of the high mountains "
Bruno Carpitella
Where
In Abruzzo, in the extraordinary environmental framework offered by the highest areas of the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park
When
Every year, Nature decides: we make sure that the bottles remain at high altitude from the first big snowfall until the melting of snow is complete
Why
The permanence in extreme conditions allows the wines to acquire properties impossible to obtain with traditional aging methods
