Togarella

Togarella is a volcanic soil typical of Breganze hills and it is the result of the tufa disintegration so called “togo” in our local dialect, that’s why “Togarela”.

This kind of soil, sandly and muddy, is particularly dry, poor in nutrients and rich in minerals. It gives the possibility to Cabernet Sauvignon to express itself fully becoming a wine able to age gracefully taking on time.

Togarella is our hit red wine for its structure, aromatic complexity and alcohol which make it a powerful, rich and important wine.
