About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on the Gargano Peninsula in Puglia, in white, stony limestone soils dating from the Kimmeridgian period and warmed by the sun.

Vinification

Spontaneous fermentation takes place in open stainless-steel tanks without temperature control, followed by five days of skin contact.

Ageing

The wine rests for six months in large stainless-steel vats and is bottled without filtration.

Tasting profile

Balanced and focused, with a masculine character, freshness and minerality.

Label / history

Calcarius was conceived as an exploration of the meeting between art and science, centred on rationality, exploration, minerals and limestone.
