Wine-growing region:
abruzzo
The sea is only 8 kilometers away and rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves surround the variegated landscape of the town of Atri in the Abruzzo region where our farmland lies. Nearby, national parks, woods and badlands, all wonderfully preserved, are waiting to be discovered in the majestic silence that seems to characterize this region of Italy suspended in time and space. Cirelli Farms is the name of our ICEA-certified organic farmland situated on 22 hectares of fertile land. Everything produced on our farm is done so respecting the sustainable natural cycles of our olive groves, vineyards, organic horticultural crop fields and animal breeding. Crop rotation, a period of rest for the soil, fertilization and livestock grazing are only some of the vital steps in the process of producing wine (in terracotta wine jars), olive oil, organically grown fruit and vegetables and meat of the finest quality.
From vintage 2021 the 7 hectares of vineyards are biodinamic certificed by Agribiodinamica.

White wine
Biodinamic
The Trebbiano grapes, exclusively coming from our own vineyards, are collected in boxes and carried to the cellar.
Here the grapes are de-stemmed and gently crushed, then transferred into the clay amphoras for a 24 hours maceration. The skins are then separated from the juice and softly pressed, before our indigenous yeasts take over and lead the fermentation process. The Trebbiano wine then rests and refines in the amphoras all the way through the malolactic fermentation, untill it is ready to be bottled.
