The landscape

The relief, the rows, the light. Looking at what gives an origin its presence, before naming it.

Period and sources

The editorial treatment draws on Victorian-era editions (1837–1901). The Italian plans of 1835 predate that period. These facsimiles are not records of Terrae land ownership.

Two territories

These two names place our activity in context. They do not form a map of Terrae’s holdings.

Italy

Italy belongs to Caravelli’s origins. Our Italian vineyards extend this connection to the land through an activity serving wine professionals. Understanding the territory begins with distinguishing places, not seeking a single expression.

The land of our origins

Champagne

Our vineyards in Champagne place Terrae within another wine-growing culture. Our activity remains upstream of bottle brands. Plot details and technical information belong in a precise conversation tailored to each enquiry.

A precise sense of origin

The right scale.

A regional name does not replace an understanding of a plot or the definition of a requirement. Useful professional information connects an origin, a harvest and its destination.
