Discover Di Filippo 'Farandola', a captivating white wine crafted from the native Trebbiano Spoletino grape in the heart of Umbria. Produced by the Di Filippo family estate-renowned for its pioneering approach to organic and biodynamic farming-this wine reflects a deep respect for nature and traditional viticulture. Nestled on rolling hills overlooking Assisi, the vineyards are farmed with minimal environmental impact, harnessing the help of draught horses and a free-roaming flock of over 400 geese for natural vineyard management. The mineral-rich, clay-calcareous soils of the estate impart a distinctive character that speaks of its origins, while the early morning hand harvest preserves freshness and vibrancy in every bottle. The wine is vinified with native yeasts and aged in stainless steel, allowing the unique regional qualities to shine.
