History
Filanda was launched to represent the premium tier of Bortolomiol's Valdobbiadene DOCG production. The name references the historic silk mills (filatoio) that were the economic backbone of the Treviso hills before viticulture became dominant. Extended Charmat contact was a deliberate stylistic choice to add complexity.
