The history of Cantina Fatalone is romantic, in every sense.

Not only love for wine but also for women, and precisely for this last passion, Nicola Petrera, the future founder of the company, took the nickname of Fatalone, at the end of the eighteenth century.

Now, after 5 generations of winemakers, at the helm of the winery we find Pasquale, his great-grandson, who proposes an idea of ​​natural wine that respects the territory, characterized by marine fossils and breezes coming from the Adriatic and Ionian.

Acertified organic farming, without irrigation, spontaneous grassing with green manure, spontaneous fermentation with steel maceration

The wines benefit from strong temperature variations and manage to be full-bodied but of great freshness.
