The Simoni family, with a wine tradition of over sixty years, aims to enhance, with its work, the characteristics of its land, using the cultivation practices in the vineyards that allow the vine to achieve a fundamental balance for the quality of the grapes. Also in the winemaking practices in the cellar, the Simoni family uses modern technologies in respect of Trentino oenology which boasts centuries of history obtaining a line of fine wines in the sign of local tradition and territorial specificity, which, appreciated and known, are distributed on the national market and international. The grapes for Terre del Föhn wines come from the vineyards, favorably exposed to the sun, of the Val di Cembra and from the hills above Lavis and Trento, as well as from Mezzocorona, Volano and Isera, in suitable areas and where the best environmental conditions are guaranteed for the cultivation of the vine.
