Nido della Tempesta is an austere Croatina, structured, powerful, full-bodied, rightly tannic, lively and elegant. Produced mainly with croatina grapes, unfiltered, naturally fermented in bottle, ancestral method, it is not separated from yeasts and preserves its peculiarities.
Name hides many meanings. It directly refers to an inaccessible place, like the place where the grapes of this wine come from. It is in fact obtained from grapes harvested in the steepest part of the vineyard. When the bottle is opened, an explosion of aromas and bubbles occur, as if a small storm had been closed inside. Finally, metaphorically, the storm represents our family, noisy and indomitable, while the nest is our vineyard, our new home.
Although born outside the province of Pavia, we like to think we have given a special touch to this Croatina. We returned to give importance to the vineyard and to the individual vines as per tradition, but we brought a modern approach focused on maintaining a balanced ecosystem.
