In the Valpolicella, there are numerous small zones that are particularly adapted for viticulture. Each of these zones has diverse characteristics, which are reflected in the final product and its quality. An accurate examination of the soil, its exposition, and the climate are therefore at the base of a careful choice where grapevines are grown. The "cru" Seccal, Ambrosan, and Cà Girardi produced by the Nicolis family are found in a very old and traditional zone. These cru are quite close to one another and are made from grapes grown under similar geographical and climatic conditions.
