Founded by Gianmarco Antonuzi and Clementine Bouveron, the project encompasses roughly 14 hectares of wild, polycultural land farmed strictly according to biodynamic principles. Working almost exclusively with indigenous varieties, Gianmarco applies rigorous Burgundian precision to his ancestral terroirs. In the cellar, their philosophy is uncompromisingly zero-zero: spontaneous wild-yeast fermentations, extended macerations, long aging in neutral wood, no mechanical intervention, no fining, no filtration, and zero added sulfur.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Wine\u003cbr\u003eThe \"R\" in Bianco \"R\" stands for Riserva—representing Le Coste’s flagship, most profound white expression. Crafted exclusively from ancient, low-yielding Procanico (the local, high-quality clone of Trebbiano) vines rooted in deep, iron-rich volcanic ash and dark sand, the hand-harvested grapes undergo roughly two to three weeks of spontaneous skin-contact fermentation in open chestnut and oak vats. The wine is then aged slowly on its fine lees in large neutral French oak casks for two full years before being bottled without sulfur additions. The 2021 vintage is a masterclass in tension, balance, and volcanic intensity, offering deep amber hues, rich phenolic weight, electric acidity, and an unforgettable, salty, mineral-driven persistence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Coste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47972284661909,"sku":null,"price":88.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/1718\/0053\/files\/LeCosteBiancoR_Riserva_2021.jpg?v=1789531639","url":"https:\/\/gcfwines.com\/products\/le-coste-bianco-r-riserva-2021-750ml-orange-wine-bottle-13-abv","provider":"Good Clean Fun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
