Terroir

Moraine hills, ancient, fossil-rich soil with high levels of minerality
"Ammonites", a name that re-emerges from prehistoric times, reminding us how many millions of years, almost 200, have passed since the time of these living beings, now fossils, to the present day. The absolute uniqueness of these soils, the oldest in all of Franciacorta, are home to the Camilucci vineyards from which this unique wine takes its name.
