Organic and iconic, Sergio Mottura's Tragugnano was born in the area of Civitella d'Agliano. Orvieto DOC, it stands out as a rare and prized example. A white wine from the territory that is authentic and far from the imitations that often plagiarise this famous wine. The production area extends over 18 municipalities between Umbria and Lazio, with the municipality of Civitella d'Agliano representing the southernmost part. This area is characterised by soil of volcanic origin, originating from the Vulsini mountain complex and Lake Bolsena. The soil, rich in minerals, offers an ideal environment for growing quality grapes. Tragugnano, in particular, comes from a careful selection of the best Grechetto and Procanico grapes, indigenous vines that have represented the soul of Orvieto for centuries. These come from older vineyards with optimal exposures. All the grapes are harvested by hand, at different times of the year to ensure perfect ripeness of the berries. The Grechetto, in particular, is harvested in the first half of September, while the Procanico is picked about a month later. After harvesting, the grapes undergo soft pressing, followed by static decantation of the musts. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks and the wine then matures for six months in steel, in contact with the fine lees. The result? An Orvieto characterised by a beautiful, luminous straw yellow colour that releases a broad and varied bouquet on the nose. Notes of almond, Smith apple, wisteria and medlar are accompanied by warmer tones of broom and pineapple, with a brackish undertone that adds depth and freshness. In the mouth, the wine is dynamic, with a savouriness well balanced by the alcohol content and a long fruity persistence. It is a wine that stands out for its freshness and its ability to evolve with time. Tragugnano goes well with fish and shellfish dishes. But thanks to its personality, it also holds its own with delicate white meat dishes.
