Caldora Vini

Caldora Vini is a young winery, born from the partnership between the leading export company in region and the “Cooperative Wine growers’ Association” of Ortona, a famous company in the region with over 1.500 hectares of land cultivated by about 700 vinegrowers. From all the grounds of ownership, we selected the best vineyards according to position, type of clone and age of the plants, that seemed to guarantee the best quality, and by using a careful reduction policy (low yield per hectare), we succeeded in obtaining top value and today a total amount of around 200 hectares are cultivated with rigorous methods according to the Caldora “project quality”. The new winemaking facility in Ortona, is endowed with the most modern technologies, while the modern bottling line guarantees the best quality control and packaging of the products and prompt clearing of the orders.
