Ex Alba Macerato comes from Podere Pradarolo, a natural, organic estate in Emilia-Romagna dedicated to low-intervention winemaking. This bottling is an orange wine made from Trebbiano with extended skin contact, enhancing texture and aromatic complexity while retaining crisp acidity. Fermentation occurs with native yeasts, and the wine is typically aged on lees in neutral vessels before bottling unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfur. The result is a fresh yet textural white with citrus fruit, floral notes, and a subtle tannic backbone — versatile at the table and expressive of its site and varietal character.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
