Description
Le Vigne di San Pietro was founded in 1980, when Sergio and Franca Nerozzi purchased 10 hectares of land in the municipality of Sommacampagna, on the south-eastern shore of Lake Garda. In the early 90’s their son Carlo took over the property and has been at the helm of the winery since then. Ancient remains from this hinterland region dating to the Roman time testify to its ideal climatic and geological conditions for viticulture. Lake Garda plays a crucial role in shaping the climate around the property, and the vineyards of Le Vigne di San Pietro benefit from the moderating effect of this large body of water.
The vineyards are surrounded by a wide variety of trees and vegetation. Carlo is a strong advocate for biodiversity which he considers to be a key element for the balanced development of the vineyards. He is an architect by training, creative by character, and farmer by choice. For Carlo, wine is a medium to facilitate cultural interaction and the exchange of knowledge between people. We'll just leave it at that.
