Description
A still biodynamic red from Emilia-Romagna, 13.5% ABV, produced by Tenuta Mara. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this wine is born from Giordano Emendatori's passion and dedication to biodynamics. The grapes, hand-selected and optically inspected, macerate for several hours before being gently pressed. Fermentation takes place slowly in French oak barrels for about a month and a half, followed by 12 months of aging on the lees and another 6 months in the bottle. A Pinot Noir that expresses the soul of the terroir, with an artisanal approach that respects nature.

After buying the land in 2000, five years had to pass before they could implant the vineyard: seven hectares exposed to the gentle sun of Romagna. An area – next to the hilltop village of San Clemente – dedicated to a great Italian vine: The Sangiovese
Visiting Tenuta Mara means living an extraordinary wine experience, unmatched in its category. A journey which lasts about two hours, beginning at the park and at the works of art ‘En plein air’, continuing into the vineyard where the grapes are grown and then become ‘MaraMia’. Along the way, you will be lulled by the richness and warmth of the notes of Mozart which are diffused throughout the vines by a sophisticated BOSE speaker system. One can also hear the delicate chirping of the many birds that inhabit the estate, a genuine natural oasis, this is a symbol of a perfect ecosystem which was built with great skill over the years.
Indoors, the tour begins in the magnificent music room from which, via a staircase that is also a work of art, you enter the ‘sacred’ places of our wine: the Tinaia, the Cantina, The Bottaia. (These are where our wines are fermented, stored, cared for in the cellars). It is a marvelously sensory experience which ends with a tasting of the undisputed star of this beautiful and unique reality: The MaraMia. Read more
