Maculan

In wine production, certainly the mild climate helps cultivation and processing, providing the products with special flavours and aromas. This is well known by the Maculan family, who have been producing extraordinary Veneto wines in their winery in the Breganze area of Veneto since 1947. Here, one of the greatest strengths is certainly the successful combination of tradition and modern, innovative cultivation and production techniques. The approximately 40 hectares cultivated by the property extend at the foot of the Asiago Plateau, where the soils are mainly composed of volcanic, tuff-rich hills and gravelly flat areas. Over the years, these landforms have proven to be perfect for production of unquestionable quality. It is no coincidence that the entire Breganze area has been designated as DOC for its cultivation of vines and olive trees. From the winery come a number of fine red wines that perfectly convey the link with the land and innovation, such as Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. But there are also special whites, which are fresher and more aromatic with fruity tendencies, e.g. Tai, Pinot Bianco and Grigio and Vespaiolo. Sweet wines are also offered at Maculan, made from grapes selected by hand at specific times of the drying process; examples are Torcolato and Acininobili from the Vespaiola grape and Dindarello, of Muscat origin. Finally, there is also a special sparkling wine proposal, the Tre Volti, made from Chardonnay grapes, after a hand harvest and soft pressing. Name and address of producer/distributor: Maculan - Via Castelletto, 3, 36042 Breganze VI. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
