The volume created for SanSteva is an editorial project that gathers knowledge of the Ligurian west coast and documents its evolution.
The book is conceived as a journey of discovery, with chapters guiding the reader through the productive curves and nuances of the land, much like a path designed for visitors to the winery. The pages reveal dedicated sections, useful for preserving the memory and depth of the story they hold.
The cover, solid and tactile, reflects the construction elements of the project: a heavy hardcover reminiscent of the tones of oxidized corten steel, with inserts that recall the local sandstone. The expansive photographic surfaces and the skillful use of white evoke the bright views of the winery, highlighting the rich colors of the landscape.
The protagonist of this volume does not reside in technical descriptions, but rather in the narrative. The text goes beyond mere organoleptic analysis, providing the elements needed to appreciate all the subtleties that bring the wine to life.
The reader is introduced to the practices that shape the character of the wines, from the bush vine training technique—described as a “natural garden”—to the use of the most modern transformation technologies.
The stylized heron logo, symbol of purity and vigor, is screen-printed in an intense gold color on the exterior cover, serving as a visual centerpiece that inseparably links the editorial product to the company’s identity.
The true heart of this book lies in the sincere gratitude toward the people who believed in the enterprise, investing resources, time, and attention to detail. It is an honest invitation to recognize the authentic value of a story in which the knowledge of the land meets quality.
