Tenute Salvaterra

One morning, fifty years ago, a vine grower took his two young grandchildren in his vineyard on the hills of Valpolicella. From there, they could see the whole Verona valley.“Look at this soil, touch it, do you feel how wet it is? ” The earth smelled of clay, it was soft and red. “Can you see down there? They all need to irrigate their land. Here, the land irrigates itself, between the earth and the rocks there is marl, which takes the water up...”. The two kids were struck by that story and for a while they believed that their grandfather was joking. Then, over time, they understood. That was the secret of that delicious wine everybody liked when they tasted it. Today the two brothers continue to grow vines in Tenute SalvaTerra, combining new technologies with old methods, and never forgetting where it all comes from: the earth.
Tenute SalvaTerra was born in San Pietro in Cariano, in the heart of Valpolicella, when the passion of the Furia brothers met that of a group of entrepreneurs who believed in a great project based on territory, quality but especially teamwork. Everyone knows that their contribution will be decisive for the success of the others, so everyone gives their best every day.
Wine requires love, experience, skill, time and total dedication.
In Tenute SalvaTerra everybody shares a vision of wine and work aimed at excellence, a virtuous circle that generates quality.
