After buying back the vineyards that his grandfather was forced to sell in the 1950's, and then acquiring even more superior hillside sites, Roberto Anselmi replanted his Garganega at high density and extremely low yield. In 2000, he left the Soave DOC because he didn't like "bureaucratic logic in his life", instead concentrating on wines like the, unfettered by oak, San Vincenzo.
