Grechetto Fiorfiore – Roccafiore

Roccafiore is pleased to present its exceptional wine, Fiorfiore Grechetto Roccafiore, crafted from 100% Grechetto di Todi, clone G5, grown through sustainable agriculture. This wine is the product of a single vineyard cru, planted in 1990 and trained in the Guyot system with an east/southeast exposure. The Fiorfiore vineyards are set on soils of white clay, limestone marl, and gypsum, providing ideal conditions for cultivating the grapes. Leggi di più

The vineyard’s average production is 1.25 kg of grapes per plant, equivalent to 8 tons per hectare. The harvest is carried out manually in mid-September, ensuring a careful selection of the grapes and preserving their superior quality.

Vinification:
Fiorfiore pays special attention to the vinification process. After a gentle pressing, the resulting must is naturally decanted to maintain the integrity and purity of the flavors. Spontaneous fermentation then takes place at controlled temperatures in steel tanks, ensuring precise management of the fermentation process.

Fiorfiore Grechetto Roccafiore has also adopted a unique aging method for the Umbria Fiorfiore Grechetto Roccafiore. The wine matures for 12 months in amphorae and large Slavonian oak barrels, allowing for a delicate interaction with the fine lees. This deliberate choice imparts a distinctive structure and complexity to the wine. Notably, during this aging process, the wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation, preserving the freshness and vibrancy of the flavors.

After completing the aging process, Fiorfiore Grechetto Roccafiore is bottled and allowed to rest for at least 6 months in the bottle. This resting period further develops the wine’s complexity and perfects its unique character. It is during this stage that the Umbria Grechetto IGT reaches its full expression, offering an extraordinary sensory experience.

Tasting:
When poured into the glass, Fiorfiore Grechetto Roccafiore captivates with its straw-yellow color and golden highlights, creating an immediate visual appeal. On the nose, inviting aromas of pineapple, golden apple, yellow flowers, and sweet spices unfold, promising a delightful olfactory experience. On the palate, this wine stands out for its enveloping freshness and savoriness, supported by good minerality. Each sip reveals additional layers of complexity, showcasing the great elegance and refinement that characterize the Umbria Grechetto IGT. For full enjoyment, it is recommended to let the wine mature for 3-4 years after harvest, allowing it to reach its peak maturity and fullness of flavor.

Fiorfiore Grechetto Roccafiore IGT is an ideal choice for white wine enthusiasts seeking a unique enological experience. Indulge in the sophistication of this wine and treat yourself to a moment of pure tasting pleasure.

Caprai Arnaldo; tradition, innovation and territory are our guiding words in everyday work. Leggi di più

The goal today is to thirty years ago:

The constant and meticulous work in favor of quality, research and experimentation of new agronomic and wine making techniques, the dissemination of the culture and tradition of the territory of which the company is the interpreter.

Il Sagrantino

We cannot talk about Umbria and Montefalco, today, without mentioning Sagrantino. A very ancient grape variety that produces red grapes with exceptional characteristics both for long aging wines and for passito wines.

Marco Caprai believed in the great richness of this tradition and has recovered it in a modern key, adopting the most innovative methods of production and business management. Thanks to continuous research and experimentation we work to offer to the public powerful, elegant wines with great personality and typicality.
