Producer: Vigne Cave
La Chierina Vino Bianco
Grottammare, Ascoli Piceno
This is a macerated white wine made from Passerina grapes, harvested from the southern part of the vineyard where the soil is predominantly sandy, contributing to its marked minerality. It rests in concrete tanks before bottling.
A lively and sunny wine, the Passerina expresses itself with bright, juicy, and intense fruit. It has a disruptive drinkability with a slight clinging sensation that lingers on the tongue, given the wine's mineral consistency.
Total sulfites: 25 mg/l.

The Rebirth of Passerina: The Vision of Zappasodi and Torquati
In 2020, amidst the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Alessio Zappasodi, the mythological host of Rimessa Barrio, alongside his friend Francesco Torquati, an entrepreneur in the organic food sector, embarked on the Vigne Cave adventure. Convinced that the Passerina grape variety still held immense untapped potential, they began searching for abandoned vineyards of this varietal in the region.
Their quest led them to Col di Tenda, not far from Grottammare, where they discovered suitable land. They leased just under three hectares, divided into three distinct parcels: 1.2 hectares dedicated to Passerina, with the remaining 0.7 hectares each planted with Sangiovese and Montepulciano. This unique property, formerly a gravel quarry, offers breathtaking sea views and benefits from its invigorating breezes.
This project represents the realization of their dream: to produce an authentic, agricultural wine that truly embodies the essence and history of this extraordinary land.
