This 100% Sangiovese undergoes a distinctive process: the grapes are held overnight in a refrigerated container, bringing their temperature down to 12 degrees Celsius. Vinification then begins the following day.

Two fermentations start simultaneously: a biological fermentation in the must, and an enzymatic one (due to semi-carbonic maceration) inside the grape berries themselves. The wine is pressed within 12 days to maintain its aromatic and flavor integrity.

This is a delicious and beautifully balanced wine, showcasing both fruit and salinity. There's a fundamental harmony that transitions from its fruity core to a nearly sharp minerality, all underpinned by the characteristic freshness of Monte Amiata!

The label features "Baccanale" by Pieter Paul Rubens.

Bakkanali: A Terroir-Driven Approach on Mount Amiata

Bakkanali is the brainchild of Sebastian Nasello, former enologist at Podere Le Ripi, and Ugo Fabbri, a highly innovative figure in artisan wine. This certified organic winery, currently transitioning to biodynamic certification, cultivates a total of 5.5 hectares of vineyards.

Diverse Terroirs and Elevations

The estate's vineyards boast a remarkable geological complexity, reflected in their diverse soil compositions:

Poggioferro (Lower Elevation Sangiovese): Around the winery, the Sangiovese vineyards are named "Poggioferro" due to their high iron content in the soil.
Higher Elevation Vineyards: As the elevation increases, the underlying rock reveals its most interesting characteristics.
- Limestone: Imparts tension to the wines.
- Volcanic Sands: Contribute a spicy minerality.
- Higher Altitudes: Refine the overall wine profile, exemplified by the Chardonnay vineyard at 800 meters.

Mount Amiata's Unique Geology

The vineyards are located on Mount Amiata, the largest and highest (1,738 meters) of a series of Pleistocene lava domes situated between Siena and Grosseto. Despite its volcanic origin, the soils have a significant marine matrix with large quantities of ancient calcareous sediments. These, combined with the volcanic sands and Fly
