Description

Working with noble rot also means having to accept, almost on an annual basis, that a certain number of batches, in spite of all the effort put into it, do not have the complexity and richness that Scaccomatto requires. These lots, identified at the end of the harvest or during aging, are used for the production of Arrocco. However, unlike Scaccomatto, in some vintages to ensure productive continuity, this wine is also produced with a small percentage of grapes dried for several months in baskets.

Grapes

Late harvested Albana, selected in multiple passages only parts of the bunch and single berries attacked by noble rot with the addition of a small percentage of grapes dried in small baskets

Vinification

In small steel tanks and in some years in used French oak barriques

Aging

In cement and steel tanks of small capacity

Fattoria Zerbina, led with passion by Cristina Geminiani, produces high quality wines that represent the authentic expression of the territory. Each wine is born from a deep bond with the land, from listening to the hidden language of the vines and from dedication in the process of transforming grapes into wine. No shortcuts are chosen but only time, care and competence. The result is works of art in bottles, capable of containing the wisdom of tradition and the strength to dare the new. Fattoria Zerbina is known in particular for the enhancement of Sangiovese and Albana, with the use of innovative techniques such as noble rot on the plant and the Sauternes-style gradual harvest. Their wines are the result of a synthesis of multiple vineyards that adhere perfectly to the profile of that type of wine. With the Monograph project, the winery offers a prestigious collection of wines from individual Sangiovese vineyards trained in saplings, which best represent the territory to which they belong. Tasting the wines of Fattoria Zerbina is like embarking on a sensory journey to discover an ancient art, reinterpreted with courage and innovation.
