The farm of Gelmino and Cristina Dal Bosco is situated in the hamlet of Brognoligo, in the heart of the Soave Classico DOC area, which is limited only to the hills of the communes of Soave and Monteforte d’Alpone, in the province of Verona. The house sign is the “gerle” which were used until years ago to carry out grapes from the hilly vineyards.
9HA located within the territory of Brognoligo but more precisely in the Soave Classico Cru of “Brognoligo”, and “Carbonare” which includes the famed vineyards of Montesei, Battistelle, and Roccolo del Durlo. Visiting these vineyards means embarking upon a journey through an area that, due to its isolation has remained largely intact, far away from environmental pollution (even today, in Brognoligo, there are no industrial estates.) Here the fragmentation of the different plots is more extreme and the average age of the vineyards much older than in other areas. The matrix of the soils – predominantly volcanic – has enabled the Garganega to express itself to the highest level of quality and to create wines with their own unique and distinctive characteristics.
