Producer Cantina Indigeno

ABRUZZO

Cantina Indigeno is a splendid reality located in Montorio di Vomaro, in the Teramo area. Born in 2016 by 4 friends, Nicola Reginaldi, Alfredo Giugno, Fabio Petrella and Loreto Lamolinara, who decide to make authentic wines that respect the territory. The 4 friends are experts in fermentation and vinification, which can be guessed from the numerous labels they produce and sell all over the world, especially in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Japan. They cultivate a couple of hectares for rent and for the rest of the grapes they buy it from farmers scattered on the Teramo hills, willing to cultivate using only copper and sulfur. Their vinification is devoted to the least possible intervention: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, no temperature control, filtration, zero sulfur or other additions. The wines of the Indigenous Cantina hardly exceed 12% alcohol, and they play everything on freshness, acidity, and drinkability. They are therefore very distant from traditional Abruzzo wines such as Montepulciano or Cerasuolo: coded to be charged, alcoholic, structured.
