Emily says... 'A joyful, unique wine. Offering an exciting fresh, vibrant fruit notes combined with savoury, earthy tones. Expressive and pure pleasure!'

This is the result of monthly fillings of a concrete tank started in 2008 for the red version and 2011 for the white one – a harmony of various vintages, with younger wine that has fermented in various recipients: concrete, oak, and amphoras. This is a synthesis of their terroir for a wine which is continuously evolving.

Orsi is located in Valsamoggia, on the hills around Bologna. This area is historically suitable for viticulture. To fully respect this vocation, and to produce wines that express the authenticity of this terroir, their farming technique allows them to revitalise the earth, stimulates the plants, and produces fruits that have a strong connection to their land.

In the cellar they respect this heritage by avoiding to use any invasive enological processes. 'This is not a matter of faith or even less a marketing strategy, it is a matter of taste: we want our wines to have a distinguished personality, that varies from one year to the other, we don't want them to be standardised.'

What you get is a continuously evolving wine that blends multiple vintages and fermentation vessels, creating layers of complexity and character. The combination of fresh, vibrant fruit with savoury, earthy tones makes this wine genuinely joyful and unique – pure pleasure in a bottle.

Serve it at room temperature or slightly chilled with charcuterie, pasta, grilled meats, or aged cheeses. This is honest, expressive Emilia Romagna wine from a producer committed to respecting terroir and avoiding standardisation, perfect for those looking for something truly unique and continuously evolving.
