0.9ha. single vineyard on blue marl and clay soil. Pressed right away, 12 months of ageing in steel.800 bottles produced. Pietranico rises up on the slopes of the Gran Sasso mountain, very close to the Adriatic sea, and between two national Parks. Here, at 400 meters above sea level, we find Luca and Alfonso. Luca became inspired to work with wine after spending a vintage with fellow Winemakers club producer, Franceso Guccione in Sicily. He partnered with Alfonso who has been farming in the region for many year and brings with him, his great knowledge of the terroir, local varieties and styles of wines. The project was started from scratch sourcing a large portion of their vines from the cuttings of Emideo Pepe’s old vines. Only Trebbiano and Montepulciano are planted. In between and around the vines they also grow olive trees and ancient wheats and keep apiaries, trying at all times to keep a balance of biodiversity.
