The vineyards are located at an altitude of between 250 and 350 metres above sea level, with south and south-east exposure. The soil composition varies significantly: clayey soils in Predappio and marly-sandstone soils, rich in stones and pebbles, between Bertinoro and Castrocaro. These territorial characteristics contribute to the intensity and complexity of the wine.
