The historical cellar of the farmhouse has been entirely renovated with the most advanced wine-making facilities. The aim of the family Celli, owners of the farmhouse, is that of continuously improving the quality of the wine both investing in new implants and in the vinification equipment.
Our production zone covers an area of 5 hectares of newly implanted vines totaling 7000 plants per hectare. It is certain that the limited extension of the vineyards at La Torre guarantees the high quality of each product. Our wine makers steadily conduct the complex task of improving on existing techniques and introducing new ones for both the vineyard and the winery.
The first documented production at Borgo La Torre dates back to 1887.
