From the legend of Acanto, a Greek nymph changed into a flower after refusing Apollo’s advances.
This pure Fiano is fermented in steel at a low temperature for a fortnight in order to preserve the aromatic characteristics and is then left to age on its own yeasts to enrich the mineral notes and flavour. This is a balanced wine that unfolds in the nose with intense perfumes of fruit and honey and a fresh lively taste with a smooth finish of toasted hazelnut. Served thoroughly cooled, it is ideal with hors d’oeuvres, seafood salads, rice, crustaceans, grilled fish and fresh cheeses.

Produced from 100% Negroamaro grapes picked in the earliest hours of the morning and immediately taken to the cellar where they undergo a gentle crushing. From a very short contact between the skins and the must is born a wine with a bright pink colour, a floral and fruity bouquet and a full and elegant flavour, with a light, fruity aftertaste which lingers in the mouth.

Coribante is an intriguing wine due to the unexpected union of the aromas and character of two red grape varieties: Syrah from which it takes the scents and aromas of a fresh wine, and dried Malvasia Nera di Lecce, aged in barrique from which it takes the fullness and the body of a mature wine. The name of the wine is inspired by the lively character of the Corybantes, dancers who, to the rhythm of the tambourine, unleashed frenetic dances and pulsating music, capable of transmitting heat and energy in an unparalleled harmony.
