History
Le Bine was introduced to represent Fasoli Gino's oldest organic Garganega vines within the Soave Superiore DOCG zone. The name references the traditional wooden vine-training stakes (bine) used for pergola-trained Garganega, a training system being progressively replaced by Guyot in the Soave zone. Le Bine is a tribute to the old method.
- 2001Fasoli Gino introduces Le Bine as a single-old-vine-parcel Soave Superiore DOCG from certified organic Garganega.
