Descrizione

Uvem is an organic and natural wine without the addition of any chemical additives, vinified in vitrified jars (not insulated like the other reds) at a depth of 3 meters.

At sight it enchants with its ruby red colour. The nose offers a unique, intense aroma with a bouquet of cherry, violet and wild flowers which is also released on the palate giving a dry and tannic taste.

A certainly ideal drink to combine preferably with red meats or seasonal cheeses, suitable for a quiet evening with friends or for everyday meals.

It is advisable to let it decant for 10-30 minutes before serving.

Winery history

The project originated from research begun around 2000 with the aim of reconstructing Etruscan winemaking. After years of experimentation with archaeologists, geologists and agronomists, the estate began using buried terracotta jars as vessels for winemaking; the first series of "official" jars was buried in 2014. In 2015 the estate’s internal production system, known as the "Metodo Mondini," was codified. The project is described directly by the producer on its website and in industry fact sheets.

Production philosophy

Organic and natural farming practices: production without GMOs or chemical additives, hand harvesting, use of permaculture techniques, and experimentation with traditional amphora winemaking to produce natural wines that express the character of the territory.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards and estate are situated on the slopes of the Foreste Casentinesi, in Antria. The soil is described as calcareous with a thin layer of topsoil; the microclimate and historic vineyards contribute to the character of the wines.
