A HISTORIC AND SUSTAINABLE TERROIR WINE<br />
Eden on<br />
Arbostora<br />
Bring together two women, love of the land, respect<br />
for nature and a passion for wine. All concentrated<br />
in a wine estate on a sun-kissed promontory<br />
overlooking Lake Lugano. A winning combination<br />
that produces high-quality wines.<br />
VICO MORCOTE<br />
Ticino boasts a varied landscape where vineyards unfurl through<br />
evocative settings. The Tenuta Castello di Morcote is undoubtedly<br />
one of them. After making your way through the main gate, the<br />
vineyard (7 hectares) unfolds before you in all its glory, located<br />
in a natural amphitheatre. At the centre is the winery – housed<br />
in a renovated old farmhouse and opened in 2020 – which runs<br />
entirely on solar power and operates on an organic (certified) and<br />
biodynamic basis. A little further on you can glimpse the ruins of<br />
the medieval castle rising up above the lake. A breathtaking setting<br />
for a vineyard that Gaby Gianini, estate owner, has managed to<br />
make sustainable over a period of just over 20 years. Together with<br />
oenologist Benedetta Molteni, she shares a love for the land and a<br />
vision of a cutting-edge winery, where grapes are vinified in the<br />
most natural way possible, combining innovation and ancestral<br />
rituals. Savouring wine has never been so magical.
