About ventitré filari
— history —
It all began on one of the many days of October, in that little vineyard, when our family would gathered for the wine harvest in the old fashion way, in an atmosphere of serenity and sharing. On those moments we, cousins and above all friends, slowly rediscover the same spirit as that of our grandfather’s, a traditional farmer who has always worked with passion and dedication. In the respect of these ideals, traditions of the local territory and of nature, our company produces a DOCG Fiano of high quality, choosing to produce only a few bottles but to do it with care and attention to details.
The whole process is carried out by handcraft with great care. Even the way that the grapes are carefully placed in the containers, when they are cut from the plants, is very important. A few moments of attention and kindness avoids bruising the grapes. The wine in the bottle will be always grateful to the kindness received with an intense fragrance and a highly refined taste.
— the wine —
In a land that has always been particularly suited to growing grapes, the territory of Montefredane, in a favorable climate and exposure to the sun, lies our small vineyard of Fiano DOCG. From the meticulous attention placed to the care of the vineyard to the traditional methods in the production process, it is born an excellent white wine, well structured and aromatic. The wine is only produced by plants of Fiano sourced exclusively from our vineyards, made up of 23 rows and about a thousand of vines, all over 20 years of age.
It is said vitis apicia, for its intense and sweet scent that attracts bees in the vineyards, the wine Fiano has a rich history, brought to Italy by the Greeks and planted it in Irpinia. It was the wine of kings and emperors for its refined characteristic and structure. In preserving the characteristics of its past, our manufacturing philosophy wants to add them to the typical features of its origin, creating a true blend between territory and flavour. In the constant research for high quality, it is our decision to produce a limited quantity of bottles, to preserve the production from invasive techniques and to manage the wine grapes process as it was once done. This is the way we have chosen and that led us to "Numero Primo" (Prime number), our first wine, to which we have dedicated a name that represents the essence.
First, because it is the first wine of our company, one that marks the beginning of a series. Numero Primo, the twenty-third , it is one of those special numbers which distinguishes from the others, they are endless, it is them who create the product, they are different, like those we want to give to our clients.
The properties of a wine starts from the pruning, and we have used a technical boost , with less yields and clusters, that increases the quality of the grapes and its alcohol content. In the winemaking of white wine, then, the decision to maintain the grape must in the lees for a longer time, has given our wine longevity and body, in the search for an excellence wine.
