In Trentino dialect, ‘sortesele’ is the diminutive of ‘sorti,’ or “small parts of vineyard.” According to ancient custom, Sortesele were large parcels of vineyard for which the heirs of an agricultural property drew lots.

Santi Sortesele Pinot Grigio della Venezie 2021 Description
Santi
A Passion for Valpolicella
Excellence is doing ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
Excellence is Ageless.
Santi traces its origins to 1843, when Carlo Santi established a wine cellar in the village of Illasi situated behind the Lessini Mountains, between the hills of Colognola and Lavagno.
Santi is known and respected for its Veneto and Trentino wines.
Santi is situated in the heart of the most acclaimed wine growing zones in the Veneto near Lake Garda. Devoted to the production of Soave Classico, Pinot Grigio, Valpolicella and Amarone, Santi wines are mainly crafted from estate-grown fruit, or from long-standing relationships under the supervision of the Santi winemaking team.
Santi has fully renovated the original winery that accommodates its modern winemaking facility and ageing cellar. In addition to experimenting with the benefits of ageing in new French oak barrels (barriques), Santi emphasizes new techniques to improve the quality of their wines.
From the flagship Pinot Grigio “Sortesele” and crisp Soave “Vigneti di Monteforte” and Rosè “Infinito”, to Valpolicella Classico “Solane” and the classic Amarone, all of Santi’s wines show a well balanced, polished international style.
