Vision and respect<\/h3>\n

We want our wines to be the utmost expression of the place where they are made, with no alteration of any kind. We want to bring the focus in the vineyard back to respect for the landscape and the timing of nature and the land, supported with the work of our own hands. We believe very strongly in this, which is why we built our winery underground, beneath the vineyard, where it won\u2019t change the look of the land we live on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Experience and ambition<\/b><\/h3>\n

We are wine-growers, first of all. We put our body and soul, our head and our heart into our work, so that everything will work as well as possible. We grow our grapes and make our wines ourselves, without outsourcing any of the work, not even pouring off. We scrupulously control every step in production to ensure the highest possible quality in the bottle.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

We\u2019re a family:\u00a0<\/b>we share the same DNA and the same passion for what we do, even if it means getting up early and working hard together every day. Balter is our home. We like it here because we love what we do, and we want to do it in the best possible way.\u00a0\u00a0We take care of everything ourselves, working the land with respect for the seasonal cycle, without forcing anything, and carefully overseeing all aspects of wine-making, sales and organisation. We try to be there all the time:\u00a0<\/span>so when you taste our wine, you will find that it expresses our personality and what making wine means to us.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>

Our history<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>

Everything revolves around a construction built for military purposes, with two towers, one round sixteenth-century tower and one square one. Time has changed the face of the fortress, first making it into a farmhouse with the addition of a stable, a barn and a vegetable plot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our ancestor Francesco purchased the fortress <\/b>in 1872 and ran the farm with his brother Attilio.<\/span><\/p>\n

The two world wars interrupted work on the farm, as the fortress was located in a strategic position; German troops used it as an anti-aircraft base during the Second World War.<\/span><\/p>\n

The fifties were equally complicated, as the Balter family went into business selling carpets and flooring materials, even while continuing to farm the land.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not until 1965 did the effects of the land remediation process begun by Francesco at the end of the war begin to give fruit, and vineyards were once more planted according to technical and logical principles.\u00a0<\/span>Our family has never stopped making wine since then<\/b>, working in the vineyard and harvesting the grapes to bring them to local wine-makers. But as we acquired more skills and experience, our passion for wine became stronger every day, and this was no longer enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

We wanted to make our own wines<\/b>, and in 1990 we constructed our underground winery, symbol of a new adventure that we continue today, and that brings us more and more satisfaction every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
