Il Fosso Cancelli was born in 2007 from the strong desire to create a wine of great craftsmanship and tradition. This wine reflects the ancient soul of our company and goes to photograph a well-defined historical period that has made the history of our Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, fermentation in cement. The name recalls the ditch that delimits the vineyards where the Montepulciano grapes are selected and harvested. These are the oldest vineyards of the Loreto Aprutino estate and are shown on the label to underline the great link with the territory. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are pressed in our ancient press and the must is transferred to concrete tanks. Fermentation occurs spontaneously by indigenous yeasts without temperature control. At the end of the fermentation proceeds with the racking and the new wine obtained is left to rest for 1 year in the cement tanks where it fermented. The wine is then bottled and aged for at least 3 years.

Il Divus was born in 1987 and proudly tells of the place it comes from, the oldest vineyards of the estate. After being selected and hand-picked, the grapes are taken to the cellar where they are crushed and destemmed. Afterwards, the must ferments in stainless steel at a controlled temperature and then delestage and pumping over are carried out. The wine obtained is decanted into large barrels and barriques of various passages where it ages for about a year. Finally, after resting in the bottle we can taste a fresh, tannic, soft, full-bodied, mature wine that improves over time.

The production vineyards of this Montepulciano are located in Pianella (PE), whose characteristic is that they are located near a small natural lake. The proximity to the lake allows the roots to be humid even in the driest periods. This freshness is also found in the wine, vinified in steel to maintain this natural characteristic unaltered. After being selected and harvested by hand, the grapes are taken to the cellar to be crushed-destemmed and vinified in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature followed by only a delestage. The refinement, after bottling a year and a half after vinification, continues in the bottle for about 6 months.

Our Cococciola comes from 1 hectare of Abruzzo pergola-trained vineyard planted in 1985 on the Loreto Aprutino estate. Its large greenish-colored clusters are harvested by hand and immediately taken to the cellar to be crushed-destemmed and gently pressed. The fermentation of the must takes place inside stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature with the help of selected yeasts, and finally the wine is aged for about 4 months before bottling.

The Passerina grapes come from the young rows planted in our Loreto Aprutino estate in 2011. The grapes are harvested by hand, then the grapes are pressed, softly pressed and the must obtained is cold decanted. Subsequently, the clear must is decanted into stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature to carry out the alcoholic fermentation. The refinement, before bottling, takes place in stainless steel tanks for about 3-4 months.

The Pecorino grapes come from 1 hectare of vineyard raised in the Abruzzo pergola system planted in our Pianella estate around the year 2000 and from 1 hectare of "espalier" trained vineyard in the Loreto Aprutino estate, planted in 2011. The grapes are harvested by hand in the very early hours of the morning and are immediately transported to the cellar in small boxes. Afterwards the grapes are pressed, softly pressed and the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. At the end of fermentation, a small part of the mass is decanted into French tonneaux from 2009 for a brief refinement of 3 months. At the end of February the wines are brought together and bottled to continue aging in the bottle for about 2 months.

The hand-picked grapes from the Pianella and / or Loreto Aprutino vineyards are placed in small boxes and transported to the cellar. The crushing and pressing is carried out with the aid of a small crusher-destemmer and an ancient press. The must obtained is transferred partly in terracotta amphorae and partly in used French oak tonneaux. To start the fermentation, the “pied de cuve” of indigenous yeasts previously obtained from the same grapes is added. Fermentation normally takes place in 7/10 days and the wine obtained is decanted and aged on its noble lees in 15hl Slavonian oak barrels and in terracotta amphorae. The refinement lasts about 2 years, after which the wine is decanted and bottled without filtration.

The Antrum was dedicated to the caves of the first winery built in 1853 in Miglianico. The wine fully reflects the character of the Ciavolich family and its centennial history rooted in Abruzzo. The grapes come from the vineyards planted by Giuseppe Ciavolich in the 90s and 2000s on the Loreto Aprutino estate. After being selected and hand-picked, they are taken to the cellar where the crushing-destemming takes place. The must together with the skins ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Afterwards, delestage and pumping over are periodically carried out in order to extract color and tannin useful for the long aging that it will have to achieve. At the end of fermentation, after racking, the wine obtained is transferred to barriques and tonneaux, half new and half used.

From the collection of Moscato grapes, the must obtained undergoes alcoholic fermentation in old French oak tonneaux without the aid of selected yeasts. Alcoholic fermentation is conducted without temperature control. Afterwards, during the refinement, the “bàtonnage” technique is performed for a few months after which the wine continues aging in cask in contact with its lees. Before bottling, a blend is made with vintage wine of Passerina and Cococciola.

Obtained from selected Cococciola grapes, it carries out a spontaneous alcoholic fermentation with the help of a "pied de cuve" obtained from grapes harvested in the vineyard a week before the harvest. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in terracotta amphorae and subsequently, shortly before the end, the product is bottled. The wine continues aging in horizontally placed bottles for at least one year and, once the “disgorging” moment has been reached, the coarse lees are removed before being marketed. The wine has a straw yellow color, with a slight haze given by the residue not removed by filtration. On the nose, light and fresh floral and citrus scents, on the palate it is perceptible a clear freshness, minerality accompanied by a delicate effervescence due to the fermentation concluded in the bottle.

The desire to try our hand at the production of artisanal wines with historical and indigenous varieties is one of the reasons that led us to produce this Trebbiano. The grapes from the oldest vineyard we have on the farm are harvested by hand in September, and then they are pressed and pressed in order to obtain the must to be used for vinification. Alcoholic fermentation occurs spontaneously by indigenous yeasts through the preparation of a "pied de cuve", created by selecting the ripest grapes before their harvest. Since 2018 Trebbiano Fosso Cancelli is vinified and aged partly in terracotta amphorae and partly in Slavonian oak barrels.

Cerasuolo is the wine that was once offered to guests to welcome them and to demonstrate how good they had been during the harvest. The grapes are those of the youngest rows of the estate, are harvested by hand and crushed-destemmed and the must is left in contact with the skins for about 8 hours and then vinified in white. It is then left to ferment at a controlled temperature in stainless steel where it remains until January / February, when it is bottled. Splendid pink reflections and light fruity and floral aromas typical of the variety are confirmed on the palate. Fresh, fruity and savory, it always invites the next sip.

Montepulciano grapes are strictly hand-picked. After the first crushing-destemming process, the skins remained in contact with the must for 12/24 hours in small concrete wine vessels until the spontaneous alcoholic fermentation began. A fraction of fermenting must was then taken from the bottom of the wine vessel, through a classic “bleeding” operation, which was subsequently transferred to terracotta amphorae where it continued to carry out spontaneous fermentation without temperature control. The refinement continued on the noble lees in amphora until bottling in the first days of spring.
