<p>“Vino di Confine” translates to “a wine from the border.” The symbolic wine of Maletto, obtained from grapes grown in a small vineyard at 1100 meters above sea level, from centenary albarello vines. About ten different white grapes (mainly Grecanico Dorato) and red (mainly Grenache) grape varieties are vinified together, as no winemaking practice teaches, but as local tradition dictates. After manual destemming carried out with the help of a perforated wooden frame made by a craftsman, the grapes are delicately pressed and macerated for a couple of days. Once natural fermentation is completed, by indigenous yeasts, aging follows in cement barrels and demijohns for about ten months.</p>
