Even when it comes to innovative wines, the source of inspiration is still our territory, which we like to reinterpret wisely. This is the case of InAnfora, where we retraced and brought back to renewed life the ancient Romans’ winemaking method. With Casadonna, on the other hand, we decided to support 'extreme viticulture', bringing Pecorino to high altitudes.
Inanfora Pecorino Tullum Docg Biologico
InAnfora Pecorino Tullum DOCG Biologico recalls the ancient Roman tradition of winemaking in amphorae, a practice that has been present for centuries in the territory of Tullum, as evidenced by the dolia, the wine cellars, and the remains of an imperial-era rural villa now housed in the Museum of the Roman Villa.

Inanfora Rosso Tullum Docg
The appeal of history through the discovery of ancient Roman amphorae in our sites has led us to retrace this ancient method of vinification already mentioned in the texts of Pliny.
We wanted to follow an authentic winemaking system, with minimal intervention and using only small amounts of sulfites as it was in the tradition of the ancient Romans to stabilize their wines.

Tradizional
At the beginning there is always a legend, a story or a tale, handed down from generation to generation, over the years, now wrapped in the bark of time. Wines born from traditional gestures will always have something profound to express. Sincere gestures, repeated over the centuries, engraved over millennia, but still relevant and imbued with vitality.

Research, for a continuous discovery, and Sparkling, for celebrating life.
Premium Organic
Organic premium
Spontaneous fermentation
We rely exclusively on spontaneous fermentation for all our Premium organic wines: that is the result of the natural selection of so-called "indigenous yeasts", which are responsible for the alcoholic fermentation of the wine. The various yeast species in the fermenting must resist the progressively accumulated ethanol in different ways. The purity of such winemaking art is completed by very little interventions in the cellar and no filtration.
