Food, wine and crafts

Castle's wines are produced with the ancient methods: grapes ferment in open wooden vats or in buried terracotta amphorae, without adding yeast and without controlling the temperature; after 10 days the amphora is sealed and left for 6 months. The skins are then removed and the clear wine is returned to the amphora and left to age for 8 months.
In the wood vats, after 1 month steeping, the skins are removed and the clear wine is returned to large oak casks and left to age for 3-4 years. No added sulfites and no filtration, the wine gets then bottled following moon phases.
The product so obtained proves to be rich of the original substances of the fruit, maintains for long time its properties and keeps on expressing the typical character of the grapes it comes from.
