Le Viti di Livio-Antico Lamole
The Antico Lamole LE VITI DI LIVIO is a wine in danger of extinction. Livio was the Farmer who, having arrived in Lamole in 1934, spent his entire life there working and as a self-taught scholar. Since then he has personally taken the buds from vines that survived the phylloxera and in 1974 he convinced Paolo Socci to replant the vineyards with free-root vines. Thus the restoration of the terraces with the ancient dry stone walls and the subsequent planting of new vineyards. All in accordance with the best possible agricultural practice without distorting the typical elements of the Lamolese landscape.
