Gallio

Veneto, Breganze (Vicenza)
The Gallio winery was founded in Breganze, in Veneto, in the last stretch of the plain at the foot of the picturesque hills of Vicenza. A "micro-company" family-run, pursued by the passion that Bruno has for this very special dessert wine, the Torcolato.
Here everything is done with simplicity and rspecting the tradition, the special care in dealing with the grape requires a long time and the yield is rather low, but this is the  price to pay to get the quality of this appreciated passito really different.

It 's the same technique that the father and the grandfather of the manufacturers used many years ago, putting the carboys of wine out in the cold winter ... Thanks to that the wine is not mechanically filtered, therefore a light deposit of tartaric acid is natural.

After half a year of aging in steel barrels, the wine is bottled.
