'Reperto' Fattoria Mondo Antico 2017

The “Reperto” from Fattoria Mondo Antico is produced by a winery located in Lombardia, precisely in the Oltrepò Pavese. The winery is part of an agriturismo, a true biological oasis that, in addition to wine, also produces cured meats and pork, flour, and organic cheeses, coming from animals that roam freely in the woods of the Bergamasque countryside on a family estate. The production philosophy aims to produce high-quality wine, which has also been encouraged by the teachings of Giorgio Mercandelli, a producer of alchemical wine with impeccable quality.

The vineyards of the “Reperto” from Fattoria Mondo Antico extend over about 4 hectares and are located at about 360-450 meters above sea level; thanks to the south-facing exposure, they enjoy excellent solar exposure, which ensures complete ripening of the grapes. The climate is continental with hot and humid summers and harsh winters, but the constant presence of ventilation ensures that the rows do not grow in a humid environment that would lead to the proliferation of harmful parasites for the plants. The harvest is manual and fermentation is spontaneous thanks to the action of indigenous yeasts. No sulfites are added before bottling.

To the eye, the “Reperto” from Fattoria Mondo Antico appears to be an intense garnet red; on the nose, it releases hints of red berry fruit, aromas of underbrush and wet earth. On the palate, it is complex, characterful, and pleasantly fresh and persistent with a delicate tannin well integrated into the drink. It pairs perfectly with dishes based on grilled and stewed red meat and first courses with important seasonings; also interesting with game. An excellent product to keep for sharing with friends and family, to savor a wine that is the result of careful and meticulous work and that releases all genuine and authentic flavors.
