Folks make fabulous champenois-style wines here with a thoroughly Italian flair (Silvia’s in-laws at Castello di Stefanago included); Silvia has opted for a more punk-rock (or rustic, take your pick) version of things. Her Chardonnay sees a few days of skin contact before bottling, with the addition of reserved must to kick-off secondary, in-bottle fermentation. ‘Sgarbato’ may seem a little uncouth or brash at first (don’t mind the haze, as a pet-nat this sees no disgorgement), but really it’s just joyful, exuberant you might say.

As she puts it: “My childhood has the taste of must, the sound of the clicking of the scissors, the scent of grape flowers. For over forty years my family has produced high quality grapes which were then delivered to the local wineries. My father has always had a lot of respect for the environment and for the vineyard, adopting a type of agriculture very similar to organic farming but without certification. Following in his footsteps, I undertook the organic path with an increasingly attentive eye towards biodynamics and biodiversity. ‘Home’ wine has always been made with indigenous yeasts, spontaneous fermentations, low sulfur, no filtration. I have maintained this great tradition, the only variable being no addition of SO2 if the year was favorable and if I listened carefully to the needs of my vineyards!
