Vallecamonica

Welcome to

Vallecamonica is one of the most extended valleys of the central Alps located in the East Lombardy. Fully crossed by the Oglio river, it covers approximately 100 Kilometers, from the Iseo Lake to the Tonale Pass.

The name Vallecamonica derives from the Latin name that the classic writers used to define its population: the Camuni. The ancient Camuni were among the greatest representants of the rock art in Europe and their engravings remain the maincultural witness of the Iron Age.

The perfect location

The name Cultivar Delle Voltecomes from the ancient mule track called Via delle Volte, still viable today, that starts exactly from Monte Grappa street in Piamborno and goes up the mountain’s side up to the Annunciata’s hamlet.

The street, very steep and cobbled, is characterized by five hairpin bends that, being really narrow, take the name “volte” (spins).

The logo represents the entrance court of the historical winery: two cross vaults that are based on a central rock plinth, with below the main entrances for the three cellars where, the arches’ and barrel vaults’ curves create a unique atmosphere.

All Bignotti’s vines extend along the ancient Voltestreet. The first vineyard, the one next to the family house, is located in what previouslywasthe historical centre of the village, close to the old parish church: from this small site, the entire activity came to life.

Instead, the other plots of land are located above, along the east foothill side: real mountain vines, placed in an uncontaminated environment, far from pollution. Vineyards that, above all, want to safeguard their wine’s authentic values: hard work, territory, uniqueness, biodiversity andtradition. Exampleofextraordinary beautyand great monuments to man’s work.

I Cultivar delle Volte is in possession of the certifications and requirements and has obtained the recognition of Eccellenze italiane 2020
