This winery is conceived as a contemporary temple in the wine-growing landscape. Its architecture is based on an emphatic and symbolic geometry, with a sober and monumental language that refers to the ancestral. The main volume rises with a silent presence, as if emerging naturally from the ground, blending into a context thanks to the mineral tones and textures of the materials: Corten steel and darkened concrete.
The access sequence is ceremonial: a central axis frames the arrival, a rhythm that accompanies the visitor and prepares the spirit. The compositional gesture suggests introspection and recollection, as if each step brings us closer to an experience of contemplation.
The front façade, rhythmic and tectonic, opens its centre to reveal a welcoming space of light and shadow, a contemporary "loggia". On either side, two lateral bodies anchor the ensemble and accentuate its horizontality.
This winery not only produces wine, but also atmosphere and meaning. It is an architecture that invites us to contemplate the landscape with awareness and to perceive the act of drinking as a ritual charged with history, nature and transcendence.
