Maceratum
Maceratum white wine is made using a single grape variety: Trebbiano Spoletino. The grapes are picked by hand in mid-October from a vineyard cultivated using Guyot trellises. The must ferments spontaneously together with the skins using natural yeasts, no sulphites are added and the temperature is not controlled. Throughout fermentation the must and skins are mixed manually three times a day. When the fermentation is complete the wine is pressed and kept on the lees for three months evolving and becoming Jiner and clearer through racking and oxygenation. The wine is bottled with the waning moon in February, it is not filtered and no sulphites have been added.
