Sauvignon Blanc is a grape variety that has been rooted in this region for a long time.

[Producer information]
Maria Bortolotti is located in Colli Bolognesi, in the eastern part of the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.
The Zola Predosa hills where his vineyards are located are considered the most suitable for winegrowing in the area.
The name was also mentioned in documents dating back 1,000 years.
The current head of the family, Flavio Bortolotti, was born in 1965.
With an eye to the future, Flavio took the lead and began organic farming in 1992, soon after starting to use biodynamic farming.
Their motto is natural wine making, and they strive every day to make wine that is delicious for everyone and affordable.
Winery <br>The brewing equipment is very simple.
This winery is far removed from the most cutting-edge machines, making you wonder if that's all there is to it.
Flavio knows about state-of-the-art machinery and complicated brewing methods, but he doesn't like to use them himself.
The philosophy is to make it simple, and all the yeast used is natural.
There is no temperature control during fermentation, but the temperature is lowered by racking (transferring to another tank).
Basically no filters are used.
The concept is to not tamper with the wine.
It's such a simple winery that the owner himself says there's nothing to explain.
The secret to its delicious flavor <br>The high iron content causes the grapes to produce tannins, creating a firm structure.
The tannins make this a wine that is suitable for long-term aging.
Because the amount of SO2 added is small, the tannins in the grapes oxidize, causing even white wines to darken in color.
