A member of the League of European Research universities and one of the largest universities in Italy with over 63,000 students and over 5,000 staff on teaching and research, the University of Milan understands the novelty of wine growing in India and provides guidance and assistance in understanding and developing vineyards, grapes, the processing of the grapes etc. Thus, the exclusive collaboration with the University of Milan supports the fundamental philosophy of Chateau de Banyan, that it is impossible to make good wine if we do not have good grapes and it is essential to create ‘clean’ wine, with its own natural aroma and flavor, with every varietal characteristic of the grape, including its fruity and floral notes is retained completely. And to ensure our goals are met, our vineyards as well as the vineyards we liaise with are managed by our own vineyard managers, in collaboration with the University of Milan.
