The white wine Pratto of the agricultural company Ca Dei Frati represents the innovation of the company. It is an unusual wine where the Turbiana grapes are joined in a blend with Chardonnay at 15% and Sauvignon Blanc at 15%. The wine making process occurs in the stainless steel tanks to exalt the freshness and the very fine and soft taste of the varietal aromas. A short passage in barrels gives color and body. The vines are cultivated on the Sirmione hills in Ronchedone and Desenzano del Garda hamlets on calcareous and mostly clay soils with the Guyot spur pruning cultivation method.
