Sangiovese from Romagna

SKU: 16440

Classe 33 Rosso is the fruit of a project that began in 2000 when we planted the so-called “Bacchilega” vineyard. An ambitious goal: to bring a strictly local Sangiovese into the glass, without "mediations" (wood) or "aiutini" (improving vines). Only with the 2021 harvest, when the plants finally entered "mature" age, were we convinced that the goal, in our opinion, was achieved. It could not fail to bear the "Serra" sub-area on the label. It could not but be dedicated to Santa Sergio

SONO was born from a project begun in 2006, first with the renunciation of the use, in the vineyard, of any synthetic fertilizer and "systemic" pesticides, and then continued in the cellar through surprising trials of vinification and refinement without no use of sulfur dioxide. The cellar technology allows us to avoid, in every part of the production process, any contact with oxygen.

Our most important red, from the best vineyard of the Petrignone farm, dedicated to mother Thea: when she died, it was 1989, we were little more than kids, we decided to continue her passion, and, if one day we produced a wine very good, to dedicate it to her. It took ten years, but we were happy, in 1999, to present Thea 1997. Dedicated to you, mom.
