riBelle 2022

This wine comes from a small plot located in Ome at about 250 meters above sea level, with predominantly indigenous vines on their own roots estimated to be between 90 and 120 years old. The grapes are destemmed with mostly whole berries, followed by a short maceration of 3-4 days with only manual punch downs to avoid extracting too much from the skins.

Fermentation occurs with indigenous yeasts in concrete.

During the second racking, 10% is transferred to oak barriques until bottling. Malolactic fermentation typically concludes in spring. riBelle is a young wine, with a nose focused on red fruits, subtle and very drinkable, with a tannic structure that varies depending on the vintage, supported by good acidity. Alcohol: 13.5% Production: 1500 bottles.

Someone has described riBelle as "the balanced and elegant version of the old farmer's wine".

Le Panische – Organic Wines from Heroic Vineyards in Ome (Franciacorta)

In the heart of Ome, on the northern slopes of Franciacorta, the Le Panische winery passionately cultivates a historic and heroic vineyard, surrounded by chestnut forests.
One hectare of century-old vines, entirely managed by hand, gives rise to organic red wines that express the authentic character of this unique territory.

The name of the winery is inspired by the Panische, spirits of the place from classical tradition, now embodied by Alessandra, Carlotta, and Laura: three women who have chosen to recover and enhance these heroic vineyards, working in harmony with nature.

Main characteristics:

• Artisanal and certified organic production
• Vineyard at 350-400 m above sea level with slopes over 40%
• Vinifications with spontaneous fermentations and respect for biodiversity
• Wines with character: elegant, intense, deeply connected to the terroir

Le Panische is a project that unites history, landscape, and wine: each bottle tells the story, the effort, and the soul of this wild and fascinating place in Franciacorta.
