The story
According to official information, the winery was established in Bertinoro in 1963 and is managed by the Sirri and Casadei families. From traditional farmhouse wines, the estate has progressively shifted its focus to quality and local typicity, developing vineyards around the village and selecting parcels to produce wines of character.
Production philosophy
Emphasis is placed on the connection to the land and on typicity: all wines are produced from estate-grown grapes, and the estate has completed conversion to organic farming for its grapes. The approach favors separate vinification of individual parcels to highlight distinct characteristics and create balanced blends.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards located around the village of Bertinoro, on soils characterized by "spungone". The parcels cited by the estate include La Massa, Cellaimo, Maestrina and Campi di Fratta.
Awards and recognition
The Albana "I Croppi" has been awarded Tre Bicchieri by the Gambero Rosso guide several times; on the product pages the producer also lists recent medals and awards.
