ENANTIO RESERVE TERRADEIFORTI DOC

1865 PRE-PHYLLOXERA

1865 represents the average age of vine plantings. We

it seemed right before than symbolic to elevate

this date in the name of this wine. The vines free of

foot, that is, not grafted onto American roots, the

only ones to resist the terrible plague of phylloxera,

are now rare on the planet and constitute the last

testimony of a historic and authentic viticulture

Enantio vine, a true native flag of our

territory, expresses the character, vigor and charm of

this geographic strip on the border between Veneto and

Trentino.
