It comes from a parcel located in the San Michele district, in the municipality of Cupramontana. You will have a territorial exception for the cultivation of vines: a natural basin protects it from the coldest winds and exposure at midday raises its daytime temperatures. The soil is clayey, sub-alkaline, strongly calcareous.
The vineyard is led by guyot. The yield per hectare is around 40 quintals (around 30 Hl). Cultivation according to a rigid biological method guarantees the maximum expression of the terroir, enhancing the minerality and flavor of the wine. The wine comes from a selection of golden Trebbiano, Tuscan Malvasia and Verdicchio harvested in a slightly overripe box. The must ferments together with the skins in open vats for about a week / ten days. After racking off the fermentation, it ends in small French used oak barrels for about a year. The "red" winemaking and the long permanence on the lees brings advanced scents of aromatic herbs, licorice, rhubarb, undergrowth, mushrooms, honey. In the mouth it is soft, warm, with a subtle vein of tannin. The alcoholic power is balanced by a moderate acidity.
You will find the wine that evolves very well in the bottle, reaching its peak two / three years after the harvest. It should be served fresh, preferably after an oxygenation. It can be combined with a wide range of dishes: pasta, risotto, fish, especially if tasty, white meats and medium-aged cheeses.

La Distesa
La Distesa comes from the desire to produce wines that respect the territory and the vines. Wines that are not approved to the dominant international taste that requires a built ease and a pleasantness. "To be winemakers for us means first of all telling the territory, with its thousand complexities, and following the seasons, with their always different evolutions. This is why we have chosen a method of organic cultivation, so as to express without distortion what the earth brings with it, naturally. Being winemakers means then directly following the whole production process, from the land to the consumer. For years we have been working in the vineyards trying to safeguard and let biodiversity be expressed as much as possible, sowing favino, vetch, pea, alfalfa and letting the spontaneous essences prosper. We do not fertilize, we treat only with sulfur and small doses of copper.
Once or twice a year we spray the biodynamic preparation 500 (cornoletame). The low yields per vine, the careful selection of the grapes during harvesting - performed manually, in small crates - the spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, the low levels of sulfur dioxide, the careful refinements are fundamental parts of our work."
In the winery located in the sunny district of San Michele di Cupramontana, the city of Verdicchio, the grapes are vinified to obtain a limited production of bottles for high catering, wine bars, wine shop.
