The scent of an ancient and authentic wine

The pure Passerina grapes of "Costafredda" are grown on soils predominantly composed of sandstone and clay, producing wines with a bold character.

The vineyards are located approximately 400 meters above sea level, and the soil is worked using only natural fertilizers and Biodynamic preparations: the manure used comes from the cows that graze on nearby land and eat only what nature provides.


The harvest is carried out manually, and spontaneous fermentation takes place in the cellar thanks to the action of indigenous yeasts in stainless steel; it is then aged for 8 months in stainless steel before being bottled.
