100% Sangiovese, the fruit of many harvests, with an average period of 30 to 45 days for picking. Fermentation is all done in small French wood, mainly tonneaux. Pressing is soft as it is done only with the feet, not even a wine press is used.

Each small harvest carries out a separate fermentation and Filippo confides to us that this choice is a bit crazy as vinification in small barrels is always a risk: with small masses the temperature never rises consistently and it is likely that the fermentations will stall a bit with all that this entails, on the other hand, slow fermentations keep more aromas in the wine and a very interesting tannic fabric is created.

Once fermentation is complete, the wine is matured for a year in the same containers, then moved after the preliminary blends into concrete barrels, again for a year, followed by a further year in the bottle!

From the producer

Il Bioselvatico

We arrived at Filippo Volpi aka Il Bioselvatico farm on a sunny april morning. To get to the farm you have to go through a dirt road in the middle of old vines and as we often do when visiting producer friends, we were struck by the beauty of the place: 4.2 ha of old vines divided into 3 plots, all planted with Sangiovese and surrounded by fallow land, woods, a beautiful olive grove and a small lake, useful for water supply and refreshment for the pollinating insects present in the area.

We are in the Val di Chiana, an ancient territory made up of fertile rolling hills and in this area particularly windy. The History of Bioselvatico was born in 2018 when Filippo after various experiences in the world of catering and high quality wine took over the family business immediately taking care of the production part and the vineyard.

Today the winery is completely run in organic, with the addition of some biodynamic practices.
