They have a passion for biodynamics, specifically the importance of biodiversity in the vineyard. In 2020 they acquired a 5-hectare vineyard in the southern area of Frascati, renowned for its volcanic terroir.
They grow Malvasia Puntinata, Malvasia di Candia, Bombino, Bellone, Trebbiano, Sangiovese, & Ciliegiolo. Vines are around 45 years old and situated on a small sunny and windy hill. They also have small vineyard in Tuscany on the border with Lazio
