Besides these fine blends, he is also focused in indugenous grapes like Malvasia Istriana and Teran. He started in 1996 and today having a total production around 130.000 bottles.

Degrassi sources the grapes from 4 different locations, coming from two differen terroirs (Terre Bianche - white soil, and Terre Rosse - red soil). Truly unique wines which are made to underpin the Terroir of his vineyards.

His white and red blends from Terre bianche are very distinguished wines.
