Discreet Pioneer of Merlot

Established in 1981 in Monteggio (Ticino) after studying forestry and oenology, Daniel Huber revitalized abandoned terraces in the Tresàtal. He is recognized for his iconic Merlots, with rare precision and remarkable finesse. Today, his son Jonas has taken over, while preserving the spirit of the estate.

An Ideal Terraced Terroir

On approximately 7 hectares, the vines thrive on south-facing slopes, in slightly acidic sandy soils, well-drained and rich in humus. The sunny climate of Ticino and the terraces contribute to the slow and concentrated ripening of the grapes.

Style: Finesse, Elegance, Depth

The wines reveal silky tannins, controlled acidity, and an expressive aromatic palette: red and black fruits, subtle spices, and discreet woody notes. They offer both pleasure in youth and aging potential—particularly the flagship Montagna Magica.

Philosophy: Nature & Authenticity

No use of herbicides or chemical fertilizers; manual harvesting, low yield, fermentation with native yeasts, aging in barrels sparingly. The goal: to express the terroir unadorned.
