A no residual sugar Prosecco, expressive, with cutting acidity. Produced with 100% glera grapes from a vineyard at 370 meters above sea level,
This wine hails from a local winemaking tradition, made with little added sugar. The resulting spumante is decidedly dry. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, and the second, in autoclave according to the Marinotti method for 90-100 days,
A subtle, elegant perlage, zesty notes of lemon, white flowers and bread crusts. Sustained acidity, length and persistence. A Conegliano-Valdobbiadene that can almost be described as extreme.
Serving Temperature: 7° – 8° C
Il Farneto’s New Player in Town is a playful pét-nat made from organically farmed Trebbiano grapes in Emilia-Romagna. Grown on clay-limestone soils, the vines benefit from a mix of continental and Mediterranean influences, yielding fruit with bright acidity and depth. Fermentation starts with native yeasts, and the wine is bottled before completion, capturing its natural effervescence. Unfined, unfiltered, and with minimal sulfur, this ancestral-method sparkler is alive with energy.

Fiano from a ninety year old vineyard planted some five hundred metres above sea level. It was fermented on skins for four days, before a year of rest in both chestnut and mulberry casks.

CALOGERO CARUANA
VINO BIANCO
VINTAGE: 2022
GRAPE: Inzolia – 100%

ALC/VOL: 13%
PRODUCTION: 2,000 bottles
HARVEST: Hand harvested
WINEMAKING: Spontaneous fermentation
AGING: In oak with the presence of flor
FINING: None
FILTRATION: None
FARMING: Practicing Organic
WINEMAKING:
Vinification is made in more steps, with two separate harvests. The first mass is vinified from the youngest vineyard and aged in a slightly drained cask with a presence of flor. The second vinification from the 50-year-old vines, with maceration on the skins with whole stems. Then separate aging for one year, assembly of both masses and one year of bottle aging.
VINEYARD:
The Calogero Caruana farm is located above the Torre Salsa Reserve in Monteallegro, in the province of Agrigento (Sicily), less than 2 km from the sea. The soils are neraly all sandy with a touch of clay and limestone and the total property is composed of 2 hectares of vineyards, 2 of arable land and 1 of olive groves. The grape varietals grown are all native: Inzolia, Grillo, Catarratto and Nero d’Avola all immersed in lush and spectacular Mediterranean scrub. Calogero’s commitment lies in producing an artisanal wine that reflects the characteristics of the soil, the natural environment and each vintage is represented based on its unique characteristics. Fermentation is spontaneous from native yeast and the interventions in the cellar are minimal and essential, so that the fermentation and refinements take place in the best possible way.
100% Montepulciano. De Fermo makes a very traditional Cerasuolo, a Montepulciano vinified as a white essentially–it is not a saigné pulled from a red-wine-to be. The vines are certified-biodynamic and harvested by hand, from the same parcels used for their reds but earlier. The bunches are partly destemmed and partly left whole and gently pressed in an old-school vertical pressoir. Maceration is only 3-4 hours but Montepulciano being what it is, the wine takes on a very deep color and flavor. Fermentation is spontaneous with no temperature control. The wine is aged in 16-hectoliter Stockinger botti for 8 months and is bottled without fining, filtering or additional sulfur (applied sparingly only during racking). The “Superiore” DOC designation indicates lower yields and higher ripeness. “Le Cince” is the collective name of the Cinciallegra family of birds known for their cheerful chirping.
GRIGNOLINO
DEL MONFERRATO
CASALESE
DOC
Grapes: Grignolino 100%
Production area: Vignale Monferrato (AL) Southern Piedmont
locality in Falliara 230 m above sea level
Soil: calcareous with emerging fossils
Exposure: south, south-west
Yield per hectare: 70 q of grapes and 40 hl of wine
Number of bottles produced: approximately 4000
Bottle format: 750 ml and 1500 ml
Alcohol content: 12.5% vol
Color: ruby red with orange reflections after the first year
Fragrance: fresh, typical of almond
Taste: dry, tannic but delicate, slightly acidic
Serving temperature: 10 – 15 °C Food pairings: cured meats, white meats;
drinkable chilled instead of white wine with fried fish, salmon or blue fish. Grignolino does not compromise on taste: either you love it or you hate it! its peculiarity is at issue: the “grignolinità”. The grignolino grape contains a higher number of seeds (called grignole in local dialect) than other grape varieties. The tannicity, which can make it unusual, is easily compensated for: a slice of salami to lubricate the palate, and the Grignolino will become more docile, it will eliminate the tannic roughness that connoisseurs like and which are the a sign of his intriguing character.
90% Schiava/10% “other”. Known locally as Vernatsch, Schiava is a thin-skinned grape native to the Alto Adige but down to only about 200 hectares in the region. The Mayrs of Nusserhof have a 1.5-hectare plot of 90-year-old Schiava vines a few kilometers from their home vineyard (mixed in are Lagrein, Merlot, Blatterle and unidentified varieties). The vineyard is on a very steep hillside and planted in pergola on red volcanic porphyry soils. The farming is certified-organic and all work including harvest is strictly, only possibly, by hand. Yields are naturally low at 30hl/ha max. The bunches are destemmed and co-fermented with natural yeasts in stainless steel tanks. Maceration lasts 5-6 weeks. The wine is aged in 20-hectoliter French oak botti for 2 years and then for another 2 years in bottle. “Elda” is named for proprietress Elda Mayr from whose family this plot came. The local Santa Magdalena DOC permits astronomic yields of 150 hl/ha, so the Mayrs choose to classify the wine as a Vino Rosso (thus variety and vintage are not allowed on the label, where a tiny lot number indicates the vintage).

Certified Organic Sangiovese, hailing from the Arezzo area of Tuscany. This wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks, then aged nine months in new and old barrels.
Grapes: Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio/Grenache, & White Indigenous Etnean Grapes
Vibrant purple/red in colour, this wine has attractive aromas of cherries, strawberries, and wild fennel. It is dry, medium bodied with juicy, ripe tannins, red fruit flavours and underlying spice. 2021 was an extremely hot and dry year on Mt Etna which resulted in a low yielding harvest of ripe, healthy grapes. However, sugar levels were higher than normal and the skins of the black grapes were thinker and more tannic. Thus, we needed to modify our vinification practices accordingly. Nature still proved dominant, and in order to produce a balanced wine, we found the need to blend the wines that usually would have been destined for our Palmento Rosso and Jeudi 15 Rosato labels, along with a white wine made from old bush vines of Grecanico, Carricante and Minnella. “Vendredi 13” Rosso is the result. Named, tongue in cheek, to reflect the challenging year of 2021 for all, and that for some “Friday 13th” is considered unlucky while for others, it’s a day to celebrate!

I Vigneri Etna Rosso is produced from all of the various aliquots of grapes that each year the owners of Etna vineyards cultivated by I Vigneri, give to the workers. These grapes are then used to make wine in Palmento Caselle, for their personal use. This form of payment was standard on Mt. Etna in the past. Consequently, this wine represents the return of the ancient traditional winemaking of Etna – using these grapes earned by the workers and then making wine the Palmento – which today has nearly disappeared.
