2024 Roccafiore Umbria Grechetto Fiordaliso

Fiordaliso is produced by Roccafiore, a young Umbrian winery founded in 2000 by the Baccarelli family in the rolling hills near Todi. The wine is made from 100% Grechetto di Todi, specifically the traditional G5 clone planted in 2004, which is deeper and more concentrated than other regional clones. Vineyards are rooted in distinctive white clay soils rich in limestone, calcareous marls, gypsum, and chalk. Grapes are hand-harvested in early September, destemmed, and undergo spontaneous fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel without yeast inoculation. The wine ages on fine lees in steel for six months, followed by three months in bottle before release. The winery focuses on sustainable farming practices.
