Production philosophy

Production philosophy

Our project: to make wine in a diligent way, attentive to tradition and authenticity, again valuing craftsmanship and the expression of the grape variety in its land of choice.

It has not been difficult for us to continue in the furrow already traced by my family: although we have brought in new technologies, the character and identity of our wines remains traditional. The white soils and good exposures give us good body and longevity, while the altitude ensures intense aromas and freshness on the palate.

Natural balance

The teachings received from my grandfather and father of honesty, dedication to the land, great peasant pride and trust in the hillside that has been our home for generations have been the founding values around which the Anna Maria Abbona winery was born and continues to grow.
Wines are always born from the best land that can convey the character and qualities we would like in the wine. we are first imagining it: for us, elegance and freshness are top priorities.

Our vision

The strong territorial identity we demand in our wine is the same one we feel is part of our culture.

The winery’s philosophy focuses on wines with a strong personality and specific identity, which stems from the connection of an indigenous grape variety and its land of choice, made from 100% single-varietal grapes. The choice of white limestone soils and altitudes above 500 meters are in function of wines with good freshness and drinkability. The altitude also ensures constant ventilation, which reduces attacks of fungal diseases ensuring healthier grapes. Finally, the temperature range results in the production of thicker skins: more resistant and with greater concentration of aroma, color and tannin.

The complexity of simplicity

The truth is simple: we must not invent it, but recognize it.
In a world that is increasingly complex, technological, demanding as much as it is vulnerable, we understood that we needed to return to the essentials, to focus on a production style marked by rigor, consistency and sobriety. A path that proceeds from choice to choice, from the soil naturally suited to a type of crop, to the management of water and production waste, to grassing and work in the cellar, where we do not use great technology and few sulfites. It is important to have quality grapes and focus on respecting terroir and vintage.

Simplicity is a lifestyle choice, even a professional one: it has to be the point of arrival, not of departure. That is the difference between simplicity and banality.
