In the local dialect the word “Olmèra” means the old elm trees wood that in the past was in the land where the vineyard is today. These elm trees released particular elements in the soil that give great structure and personality to this wine. Olmera is an intriguing blend of Tocai and Sauvignon Blanc.

Tasting Characteristics: intense straw yellow colour with golden hues, rich nose, with intense ripe fruit bouquet, strong body, smooth, velvety, very long, with an exotic fruit finish.
Food Matching:  ideal with risotto, shellfish and fruits de mer.

About the winery

The De Stefani family originates in Refrontolo, a little hilly village in Veneto Italy. As results in official documents of 1624. In the second half of 1800 Valeriano De Stefani, the founder, individualized the best soil where to produce wines of rare indigenous territorial personality “thanks to the Caranto soil”, as is the Colvendrame estate in Refrontolo, on the hills between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, north of Venice, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Today Alessandro De Stefani “ fourth generation” follows his father Tiziano in producing wines that follows a very natural philosophy of sustainability by maintaining and preserving the growth of old healthy vines, planted by choice in very high-density vineyards, without the use of chemicals or animal products, and using only indigenous yeasts without additional sulphites in the process of making their wines, turning native varieties into a better expression of themselves.
