Unesco World Heritage Site:
Nowadays Masottina wines hail from almost 300 hectares of vineyards that extend along the Conegliano Valdobbiadene hills, an UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This vine-covered area has been built up over time with carefully selected vines grown by the family to the integrated Crop Management National Quality System (SQNPI) of organic practices.
However, it is in the Ogliano hills that Masottina expresses its production and quality philosophy with crus from a unique terroir: R.D.O. Ponente and R.D.O. Levante
Le Colline del Prosecco di Conegliano and Valdobbiadene
Located in north-eastern Italy, the property includes part of the winegrowing landscape of the Prosecco wine production area. The landscape is characterized by ‘hogback’ hills, ciglioni. Small plots of vines on narrow grassy terraces. Forests, small villages and farmland since the 17th century. The use of ciglioni has created a particular chequerboard landscape consisting of rows of vines parallel and vertical to the slopes. In the 19th century the bellussera technique of training the vines contributed to the aesthetic characteristics of the landscape.
