HISTORICAL NOTES
Amyclano pays tribute to the mythical city of Amyclae, a Greek colony founded by the Spartans, situated between the Aurunci Mountains and the Fondi plain. According to legend, it was abandoned by its inhabitants due to a snake invasion. Fleeing inland, they founded the city of Itri.
GRAPE VARIETY AND PRODUCTION AREA
100% Vermentino
The grapes are sourced from the vineyards of Itri, at an altitude of approximately 300 meters above sea level. These vineyards thrive on clayey-calcareous soil with a robust structure, benefiting from the coastal sea breezes from the Sperlonga and Gaeta seas.
VINEYARD CULTIVATION AND WINEMAKING
The Guyot training system is employed in our vineyards, with a planting density of 4000 vines per hectare, yielding approximately 70 quintals per hectare. Our winemaking process includes a brief maceration of the grape skins in a press, followed by gentle pressing. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks under carefully controlled temperatures.
HARVEST TIME early September.
