Calvalchina Description
When Franco Piona of Cavalchina isn’t on tour with Billy Gibbons and Steve Vai as their trusted guitar tech, he makes his home near Lake Garda, in the tiny village of Custoza. His family has deep roots here; they single-handedly created the Custoza appellation in the 1970s, after 10 years of labeling their wines as Custoza, but their history here goes back even further. It was Franco’s grandfather Luciano that planted the first vineyards and started making wine in 1948 after World War II.
From vineyards that sit just east of the cooling influence of Lake Garda. Vines are planted at 150 meters above sea level to morainic soils. The wine is then aged exclusively in stainless steel until March following the harvest.
