In the narrow territory of the village, which has always been devoted to viticulture and more generally to cultivation, one of the world's smallest Appellations of Controlled Origin has been created: the Villamagna Doc.
Our philosophy stems from tradition, which has handed down to us the cultivation of roses in vineyards as a practice used since ancient times. 
The rose, an extremely sensitive plant, placed at the beginning of the rows, controls the health of the vine and helps the winemaker to monitor and protect the vineyard, detecting any pathologies and facilitating rapid intervention.
The typicality of our production lies in the craftsmanship of each step. In fact, each bottle is individually numbered and prepared by hand until the dried rose is placed.

The millstones are one of the best testimonials to understand the refined level reached by local artisans and the enormous size that the production of fine wines had achieved in the territory.
