Torano Nuovo is in the center of an uncontaminated Nature still provided of its times, able to generate unforgettable fruits through its soils and still capable of holding the idea of labor as a gift and able to transform the passion for the land in immutable love. The climate balances the soft and sapid influence of the sea together with the cold streams from the Gran Sasso Mountain, giving birth to a perfect condition that allows a slow and progressive ripening of the flavours and creating an ideal balance between sugars and acidity.

The climate balances the soft and sapid influence of the sea together with the cold streams from the Gran Sasso Mountain, giving birth to a perfect condition that allows a slow and progressive ripening of the flavours and creating an ideal balance between sugars and acidity. The clay and limestone soil hosts the roots, which go down for several meters, the soil also provides and feeds them with a specific minerality that allows the wine to have complexity and longevity.
A combination of soil and climate factors: the location of the vineyards exposed to a large solar arc, the different temperature range between day and night that helps the filling sugars in the grapes and the constant wind prevents bacteria and diseases to develop – all this define Torano Nuovo a town from incredible vine vocation.
Our wines’ sense of place is strongly tied to the genetic complexity of the vegetal material which populates our vineyards. Emidio planted his first vineyards with the old method of field grafting. This practice – long lost – is to plant the rootstock, leaving its root system dig deep in search for nourishments without worrying about the fruit. When ready, the plant is then grafted on the field, an operation that Emidio did himself after having selected and prepared every bud.
For more than 50 years we have been carrying out an agricultural project that tries to enrich our soils and we let ourselves be enriched in turn by the enormous vital energy that Nature propulses every day. We live as a responsibility the contribution to the biodiversity of our vineyards and the surrounding countryside. To ensure a substantial return of organic matter to our soils we have put in place a system of crop rotation of the parcels surrounding our vineyards. The idea is to feed diversity, host multiple crops every year, stimulate the proliferation of indigenous yeasts, inhabit a local fauna, feed you and us with foods that are healthy and part of an agriculture project that crosses the boundaries of production to imagine it a seed to the sky in a resonant universe.
