The success of the product is due to strict compliance with the rules of winemaking and two unique in its properties vineyards. To guarantee high quality of products, a micro-farming program was developed and implemented, a topographic map was compiled using aerial photography and soil composition was studied on all 200 hectares of vineyards. So, suitable sites were identified for the vines of two varieties - Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc.
In 2016, the Foley plant was in the earthquake zone and suffered significant damage, but thanks to the determination and diligence of the entire team, the losses were restored in 2017.
