Posca Bianca Vino Perpetuo - Orsi Vigneto San Vito

Posca Bianca Vino Perpetuo - Orsi Vigneto San Vito

Posca was a refreshing drink of ancient Rome. The name wants to call only the daily life of this wine and not its ancient composition. It is obtained from white grapes and is the result of a monthly filling of a perpetual basin started in 2011, a harmony of various vintages, with younger wine. Contained by spontaneous fermentations, it is neither clarified nor filtered. Pale yellow slightly turbid, the nose shows the aromas of elder, white peach and gooseberry. The sorrel is very fresh, mineral with a overwhelming drink.

Service

We recommend tasting the Posca Bainco at a temperature of 6/8 ° in tulip goblets. Daily wine.

Pairing

Great as an aperitif, it fits well with fish dishes and fresh cheeses, to try with a salmon salty cake.

The cellar: Orsi Vigneto San Vito

The cellar Orsi Vigneto San Vito is located in the hamlet of Oliveto, in Valsamoggia sui Colli Bolognesi. This is a historic wine-producing area, where medieval sculptures have been found in the Abbey of Nonantola, which witness the presence of excellent wines. The company has been active for more than 50 years, but it is only in 2005 with the arrival of Federico Orsi and his wife Carola who change their looks and philosophy. The two believe very much in the valorisation of the typical wines of the territory through biodynamic agriculture, the only one that allows to produce original wines, thanks to its ability to revitalize the soil and stimulate plants and vines. But the company's business is not limited to wine production, but also to vegetables sold to local restaurants and the breeding of a particular breed of pigs called Mora romagnola. The vines of Pignoletto, Barbera and Cabernet Sauvignon are not fertilized or irrigated, but only small amounts of sulfur and copper are used for protection. In the cellar invasive oenological interventions are avoided, and fermentations are spontaneous without the use of selected yeasts, and there is no clarification or filtration on the wines. The wines of Orsi Vigneto San Vito are strongly expressed by terroir, distinctive and never standardized.
