Fermentation triggered by indigenous yeasts only. The fermentation takes place in steel tanks as well as the refinment. The annual production is approximately 12,000 bottles.
The Story
At Roscioli, we always say that everyone will like a wine when both Alessandro Pepe and Gaetano Saccoccio like a wine, and this is what happened with this wine. Gaetano prefers extremely natural wines and Alessandro thinks about the palates of all the others who like clean wines but don’t want the natural wines which can often have quite off-putting aromas. The guys at Bakkanali work organically, with some biodynamic practices, on a vineyard of 25 years of age to make this incredible wine which is sincere on the palate, has a beautiful refreshing acidity, and feels totally alive, as it has not been manipulated. Let this wine bring out the Bacco, or Dionysus, in you!
