Cantina Visits & Tastings

VISIT CANTINA I CIACCA

Newly built on the original site of the historic “palmento” at I Ciacca, our Cantina is state of the art.

Modern concrete tanks, thermostatically controlled on site and remotely allow the best conditions to be maintained for the fermentation, settling and preservation of our wines. They also mimic natural conditions permitting and encouraging the development of the local natural air born yeasts to be found on grapes which are essential to the natural fermentation of grape sugars to make the wine we so much enjoy..

• Learn about the history of I Ciacca and of the truly indigenous Maturano grape.
• Learn about our decision to make an organic wine and the work required to maintain not just the “Biological” Certificate but also the family tradition.
• Learn about the various ways we use to make our Maturano in different styles.
