The Story

Terlano's vineyards stretch from the gentle hills of the valley floor to the steep mountain slopes with their extreme growing conditions. Here the earth is endowed with rich mineral crystal deposits known to geologists as quartz porphyr. The distinct character, stunning depth and extraordinary longevity of this Sauvignon is largely attributable to the mineral-abundant soil.

About Terlano

Producer Story

Founded in 1893, Cantina Terlano has grown into one of the leading wine growers' cooperatives in the Alto Adige region of northeastern Italy. Located in the Dolomite Mountains in the foothills of the Alps, Terlano's distinctive location and extraordinary terroir are key to the development of their stunning, world-renowned wines. With a current membership of 143 growers farming a total area of 165 hectares, Terlano insures the highest standards of quality by compensating growers for the quality of their grapes not the quantity. The emphasis in the vineyard is on reducing yield in favor of producing more concentrated fruit.
