Verdicchio

This vineyard in Poggio San Marcello, within the Castelli di Jesi DOC, it’s part of our “Roots and Souls” vineyard project and is planted with 30-year-old Verdicchio vines. For this cuvée, the northernmost parcels were selected to preserve acidity and freshness. The idea was to create a sparkling wine refermented in bottle using only the grape’s own must, without adding external sugars or yeasts.

6/8 is inspired by the old single-fermentation method once used for Prosecco. After spontaneous fermentation in steel, a portion of frozen must from the first pressing is added back at bottling to trigger natural refermentation. The result is vibrant and evolving: citrus, green apple, white flowers, and a subtle savory edge. Each glass grows slightly broader and more textured as the wine opens.

Albamocco

Sometimes, getting lost leads you exactly where you need to be. When Alessandra Venturi and Filippo Russotto took a wrong turn while exploring the hills of the Marche, they ended up outside the home of a local winemaker who invited them in for a glass of Verdicchio. That encounter became the seed of Albamocco. They restored an old stone farmhouse, planted olive trees, and brought back to life a small vineyard of Verdicchio. Their winemaking is intuitive, transparent, and hands-on, with minimal intervention and a deep respect for what nature offers.
