Natural wine has no uniform definition. It is a general term used to describe artisanal wine made using organically and/or biodynamically grown hand-picked grapes which are vinified with little or no intervention. Winemakers often rely on indigenous yeast to catalyse natural fermentation, avoiding the use of any chemicals, additives or sulphites.
The result is wine which is alive, energetic, vibrant and unexpected – a welcomed contrast to the industrial practices of the wine industry.

Tasting Notes
It is a manifesto to freedom and joy. Rosé from Barbera harvested 20 days earlier than the red version, obtained by draining only before pressing, without maceration on the skins. A wine that escapes time and its climate change, the canons of phenolic maturation (harvested with good acidity and not excessive sugar content for fermentation in the bottle) and gives lightness and light-heartedness. Creamy and fine bubble, never invasive for a companion glass.

It goes well with our typical cured meats (salami, ham, cooked shoulder, pancetta, etc.); as mentioned above it also goes very well with risotto, vegetable and tomato pasta, and second courses of white meats; excellent, "superlative" with pizza
