ELENA FUCCI
DEVELOPMENT OF A SOUTHERN ITALIAN GRAND CRU
In a region with vast horizons and profound silences, where the green hills contrast with the reddish expanses of vine leaves, on the slopes of a now extinct volcano, my farm is located. In the era of digitalization, where distances disappear and sharing becomes easier, it is truly exciting to be able to share my projects with those who are passionate about my world, that of wine.
My goal, with the funds that you contribute here, will be to improve the quality of my Aglianico del Vulture. The goal is to improve the difficult aging of Aglianico del Vulture to produce an increasingly elegant wine that reflects my idea of the territory.
I have always vinified and refined my product in French oak barriques, renewing the wood stock every two years and paying attention to the quality of the barrels we purchase. A few years ago, I started small experiments of Aglianico del Vulture in 500-liter tonneaux, noting how they are better matched in larger containers, because, to express themselves at their best, it is necessary to extend the time they stay in wood. My goal, in this case, is to have more tonneaux available in order to give my product more aging time.
In 2017 I also tried the first vinification and the first aging in ovoid amphora, made of terracotta. It was a great surprise because we made an elegant and mineral wine beyond measure, in which the volcanic component of my territory is enhanced. However, I only have one available, and my intent would be to have a fair amount of them to continue this experiment. I am excited about this, as the ovoid shape without angles creates a vortex during aging that favours continuous suspension of the fine lees, playing a protective role and allowing me to work with lower sulphur levels. The untreated terracotta, of Italian origin with its microporosity, helps the refinement of tannic wines like my Titolo, reducing the thermal shock and the rise in temperature that occurs gradually inside.
A final experiment that I would like to try again is that of vinification and aging in wooden vats. The ability to ferment my wine in the aforementioned two-hectolitre vats, I believe, can give still unexplored characteristics to my product. I hope to already be able to vinify and refine the 2021 vintage with an increase in new tonneaux, barriques, amphorae and vats that I hope to be able to order as soon as possible.
