The project begun in the early 1980s, when Antonella and Marco had few ambitions beyond the desire to make wine for themselves and their friends, Folicello was farmed organically from the start and is situated midway between Modena and Bologna. Their daughters Federica and Francesca now work with them, continuing the good practices in place, including some biodynamic principals and real dedication to soil management and biodiversity (maintaining hedges and woodland) alongside a genuine low intervention approach in the winery. As you would expect from one of our producers all pruning is done by hand, as is the harvest, and yields are much much lower here than is common locally. There is also a commitment to local grape varieties such as Montuni and Malbo Gentile. Superb Pet Nats, including Il Macerato which has 20 days of skin contact. The red, Gocce Rosse, has zero added SO2.
