Pure Baratuciat, produced in only 3,000 bottles.
Grapes come from an 8-year-old vineyard, spontaneous fermentation in cement with 9-day maceration on skins. The nose is citrusy with notes of lemon peel and tea very fresh and bright.
The maceration leaves a light imprint in the wine, not too extractive. In the mouth it is smooth and very interesting.
Maceration on the skins for 9 days, spontaneous fermentation in concrete vat.
About Azienda Agricola Summer Wolff:
For now I’ve only 2 hectares of land in the same valley as my husbands winery, Cascina Iuli, but I have plans of planting more… slowly, when the time is right.
We have rented some vineyards from a legendary grape grower in the Monferrato called Rosalba for over a decade now, and for the past 5 years or so we have also done a micro-vinification for her of her beautiful Freisa in our cellar… only one barrel, or one damigiana, depending on which way the wind blew that year. This just for her personal and familiar consumption.
Each year Fabrizio and I tasted this little ‘Rosalba’ barrel, throughout it’s evolution, before we bottled it and sent it off with her, and every year I would say; “This is so good, I am fascinated by this variety; I want to make a Freisa!” Fabrizio looked at me two years ago and said, ‘do it!’
