Producer Profile – Triacca
This impressive estate was originally built in the 1500s as a Dominican monastery and later served as the summer residence of the De Gatti family, after whom the estate is named, before being bought by the Mascioni family. Our family acquired the “La Gatta” estate in 1969, turning it into a favourite destination for many discerning Valtellina wine connoisseurs.
The old monastery is surrounded by 13 hectares of vigorous vines, benefiting fromrecent improvements introduced by our experts. This system has become a model for grape growing in the Valtellina area and provides an excellent example of rationalised viticulture on steep mountain slopes. “La Gatta” lies at the foot of terraced vineyards west of the town of Bianzone. You are welcome to visit us: come and wander among the vines, visit the cellars and taste our wines.
