About Podere San Biagio
Located in Controguerra, on the Colline Teramane, the family run vineyard of Podere San Biagio sits on the border between Abruzzo and Marche. Roughly 5 hectares at 300 meters above sea level, a few kilometers from the Adriatic coast, neighboring the Gran Sasso (the highest mountain in the Apennines), the influence of the sea and the mountain currents create a special microclimate well suited for ripening their grapes.
Organically run since the 1980’s, the farm has since the beginning, embraced a natural and sustainable approach to agriculture. The main activity previously focused on the cultivation of abandoned ancient cereals and grains typical of the region. In 1994 the Agriturismo was born, a few years later came their first vineyard and olive grove, in 2000 the cellar was built and the first bottles began to be produced.
Nowadays, wine is the main activity on the family farm, with son Jacopo taking the lead and concentrating on natural vinification techniques refined over the years. All of the wines are spontaneously fermented, unfiltered, not clarified, with a minimal addition of sulfites as needed.
