AGRICOLA LA TORRE
D.O.C. WINE
PRODUCTION
The Farm "La Torre" is located
nearby an ancient tower which stands guard over the
river Chiese . It is constituted by two buildings;
the farm house and the manor house, dating
respectively from the 17th and 18th centuries. The
frontal gallery, which looks to be an old convent,
has become the symbol of the winery and it appears
as trade mark on the labels. Although it is not a
big firm the surface of the farm covers more than
23 hectares of land.
Three generations of owners
increased and took care of wine production, and are
able now to obtain excellent wines which have shown
to be more and more appreciated by both consumers
and experts.
It is very easy to reach the
winery from Desenzano or Brescia (respectively 15
and 20 km). Getting to the village of Bedizzole
just take the direction for Mocasina up on the
hill. You will side some of the vineyards of "La
Torre" and finally reach the winery in the village
of Mocasina. The farm stands 180 meters on sea
level and offers a beautiful view over the river
Chiese and the surrounding woody hills.
The vineyards and a small
olive-grove mainly lay around the building ,in
stony soils and slopes which enjoy long hours of
sunlight. They are carefully cultivated with
respect to pure country traditions which together
with the application of modern pruning techniques
(a low bud load and a high vine density) allow us
to obtain grapes of the best quality.
The farm also cares for its
precious environment, and is therefore using low
impact products against cryptogams
dangers.
For wine-making we use
traditional methods together with modern
technology. After the appropriate processing in our
crushing room the wine comes to maturity in old and
sombre cellars, under ideal conditions for this
delicate phase.
A special room with vaulted
ceilings has been created for guest reception,
entertainment and tasting, where we will be pleased
to present the best of "La Torre" Garda Classico
D.O.C. wine production.
