A distinguishing feature of Salentein is the diversity of its vineyards. Spread across three distinct microclimates, each vineyard is exquisitely managed to ensure the highest quality grapes. To take full advantage of their distinctive vineyards, the oenologists meticulously monitor the conditions and maintain diligent precision during harvest.
