About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Albana comes from an organic vineyard in Romagna with clay soil. The vines were planted in 1983.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in the first week of September. Vinification takes place in 470 L Georgian qvevri, without added yeast or temperature control. Skin maceration lasts 70–120 days, depending on the vintage.

Ageing

The wine is aged in qvevri.

Tasting profile

The nose is charming. The palate is complex and full-flavoured, with high acidity balanced by sweet fruit and honeyed notes.

Label / history

Annual production does not exceed 2,500 bottles. The Italian Sommelier Association’s regional wine guide awarded the 2016 vintage its highest distinction, “Gold Excellence”.
