Buca - Verdicchio Classico 2023 - Biodynamic white wine - Tenuta San Marcello

Buca (fu della Marcona) is a distinctive Verdicchio, vinified purely, originating from clay soils with a widespread presence of limestone. The soil is characterized by marine sedimentation and limestone formations from nearby karstic massifs.

The agricultural methods are regenerative; the soil is nourished with crayfish humus and repeated green manure. Biodynamic preparations, herbal teas, and propolis are also used to minimize the use of substances such as copper or sulfur.

The grapes are cultivated by Guyot and harvested by hand in early September in small crates to keep the berries intact until arrival at the winery. The pressing is gentle. Fermentation is spontaneous, without temperature control. This is followed by static decantation with the racking of the clear, noble part.

The wine matures for 6 months on fine lees in stainless steel tanks, followed by 2 months in the bottle.
