source

The source that was originally used for bottling Sant'Anna water was that of Vinadio at 1503 m above sea level. M., but since the 2000s a second spring has been added from which water is drawn: the Rebruant spring. In reality, the latter consists of four different springs belonging to the same hydrogeological basin, the highest of which is located at 1950 m above sea level. The company markets the water from the two springs with different labels. In fact, one is sold in discount stores and the other is sold across the GDO network. The first written records of the waters of the Vinadio springs date back to the 16th century. Historical documents highlight the lightness of the water that was drunk by the pilgrims who went up to the Sanctuary of Sant'Anna.

Chemical composition

The water from the two springs has different chemical and physical properties. However, due to their low solid residue and limited hardness and presence of ions, both waters can be classified as minimally mineralized and low sodium water and for feeding newborns. In particular, the water from the Rebruant spring has a solid residue of 22 mg / l and the Vinadio spring has a sodium content of 0.9 mg / l.
