It is the wine of tradition called “vin col fondo” in the local dialect. It is a blunt wine, unique in its kind: here derives its name “Capo degli Onesti”. The natural and spontaneous fermentation is carried out directly inside the bottle. Once it is ended, it creates a lightly bottom exclusively made of natural yeast. The taste is dry yet balanced, savory with good minerality, slightly bread crumbs and ripe fruit hues, an easy to drink which can be matched with any type of food.
