In the South East of Piedmont, in the Langhe region, on top of a hill, you find Castiglione Tinella. With 92% of land cultivated with Moscato vines; it is one of the first Italian villages with the highest density of vineyards. The Soria Estate has been there since the 19th century and it has a strong link with the surrounding land and the traditions handed down from father to son. The Estate is located in Frazione San Martino, a prestigious area for Moscato grapes since the beginning of the 17th century. The San Martino’s hill presents light slopes and is rich of “white soil” (a local synonym to identify a soil with a lot of sand), which gives the grapes and hence the wine excellent perfumes characteristic of the Castilgione Tinella’s Moscato d’Asti. The Estate is today composed of 40 Ha (100 acres) which spread all around the winery. They are planted with a careful selection of clones chosen among the most suitable ones able to transform all the characteristics of the soil in perfect grapes rich of acidity and aromas. The estate was founded by Sebastiano Soria’s family , Matteo’s great-grandfather, who learned all the techniques and secrets to produce excellent grapes, a fundamental condition to obtain a superior wine.
