Sangiovese wine, and the organic synthesis among vineyards, art and classical music

Visit and tasting in wine cellar | Duration: approximately 2 hours

Sangiovese is one of the oldest and most common vines in our peninsula. When it is not over-cultivated it can definitely be a wine with a perfect balance characterised by very refined aromas. It is also very suitable for aging when aged in large barrels with smooth corners. One of the areas of greatest production is located in the hills of Romagna and the cultivation that we will visit, located on the hills overlooking the Apennines, is quite a unique place, where the practice of organic agriculture is well combined with a passion for music, art and life. Seven hectares solely covered by Sangiovese vines include a perfect ecosystem with more than 700 bird nests, a small stable with just three horses and a permanent laboratory for artists and researchers. It is right here, surrounded by sculptures by artists such as Giò Pomodoro, Mauro Staccioli and Piero Sbarluzzi, where a biodynamic wine of the highest quality is produced, thanks to the protection of biodiversity and the gentle notes of Mozart that are played across the vineyards throughout the day to accompany the vegetative cycle of the vines.

Sangiovese wine, and the organic synthesis among vineyards, art and classical music

Visit and tasting in wine cellar | Duration: approximately 2 hours

This activity is a proper wine experience, unique of its kind. A journey of about two hours that, starting from the park and the works of art that are perfectly blended with the landscape of the area, in an unparalleled artistic walk en plein air, continues in the vineyard, where Sangiovese grapes are cultivated. Along the way, you will be lulled by the sounds of Mozart‘s notes played along the rows, as well as the chirping of the numerous birds that inhabit the estate, an authentic natural oasis, quite literally the perfect ecosystem. Inside, the visit begins in the splendid music room from which, through a staircase that is also a work of art, you can access the ‘sacred’ places of wine production: the wine-fermentation room, the wine cellar and the barrel storage facility. A breathtaking sensory experience ending with the tasting of Organic Sangiovese wine, the undisputed protagonist of this wonderful experience.
