Spungola Bellaria - Pignoletto

Pignoletto is a white berry grape typical of the bolognese hills. The grapes are gathered by hand and transported in cases, once in the wine cellar they are whole pressed.  The must is placed in opened vats, where within days spontaneous fermentation occurs without temperature control. When the fermentation has begun, the must is decanted in 500-litre wood casks where it remains with its fine dregs for at least 12 months. It is then bottled and left to age for 6 months. Our Pignoletto is not subject to stabilization, filtering and clarifying, must bleeding methods or other procedures of modification used in wine cellars. Thanks to its natural qualities, it is extremely suitable for long-term ageing.

Who I Am

The Azienda Agricola Alberto Tedeschi (located on the bolognese hills) stretches between two municipal districts: Monteveglio, where there are 2 hectares of grapevines and Zola Predosa, where there is a wine cellar.  The vineyard, situated in the Regional Park of Monteveglio Abbey, is cultivated to be in harmony with and respecting its natural cycles. Any intervention on the vineyard is used to keep the ecosystem surrounding the grapevines as lively as possible. We cultivate the Pignoletto native vine, which comes from the traditional white grapes of the territory. In the wine cellar, the same natural approach and search for the maximum character of the harvest is followed up with a wine-making model. This model allows the grapes to play a leading role in their transformation into wine, without the intervention of man. Our aim therefore is to make the grapes express their maximum character, according to the climate of each year.  The territory differentiates the wine and makes it unique.
