The Montello-Colli Asolani DOC area expands in the north west of the city of Treviso, in the first piedmont hilly zone.
This area is represented by a very long zone at the foot of the hill and by a very long hilly zone facing east-west direction, joined by a plain area and by the Mercato Vecchio hills of Montebelluna and of Caerano San Marco. The hydrography is characterised in the north by the Piave river and in the southern part by the Canale del Bosco, which flows at the food of Montello.
The surface substratum of the lands located in the area of Montello mainly consists of ferritised clay of a dark reddish brown colour.
The Montelliana area has always been dedicated to wine-growing, thanks to the special structure of the land and to a lucky climatic exposure: two essential elements that created optimal hydro-geological conditions for growing great vineyards of Cabernet, Merlot and Prosecco, which form the slopes and plains of this area.
Serafini & Vidotto grow their vineyards according to ethics, searching for taste, observing the paces and principles of a compatible and intelligent farming.
Since 1987, the 20 hectares produce best grapes of the area.
The quality of the wines is the result of the careful work in the vineyards. Healthy and ripe grapes, obtained with the high standards of manual labor, the right plan density (about 6,000 plans/hectare) and low yields. More or less one bottle per vine.
Without losing the sense and proportion of things, supporting the forces and the capacity of land, air, climate. Being content with a limited production, which grows very slowly respecting the character and nobleness of the result.
