Historical figures and documents report that these areas have been cultivated as vineyards at least since the mid-1800s. They were part of a great estate that with the 20th century was broken up, with the parcels passing from hand to hand until they arrived in our hands in 1998.
This passage of properties had left this particular parcel without a name. Examining historical maps, we discovered the toponym “Guado al Melo,” or Ford at the Apple Tree, which was a ford across the Fossa di Bolgheri stream that forms the Northern boundary of our property. And thus Guado al Melo it became, testifying to our bond with the area. In 1999, we re-planted the vineyards, and in 2005 we completed the construction of the current wine cellar. 閱讀更多

| Story | Atis is the name of a mythic king, grandchild of Zeus. According to a legend, he was at the origin of the Etruscan people, first civilization of our territory and first winegrowers in Italy (before XII c. BC). The Etruscans cultivated the vine as they saw it in nature, climbing trees, as represented on the label. In the Etruscan training system, the vine "married" the tree, depicted on the label, which has become the symbol of endless love in the Latin literature. |
| Origin | Castagneto Carducci (LI). |
| Climate | Mediterranean, tempered by the breezes from the Tyrrhenian sea. The hilly area has the fresher temperature of the territory, with a broad day-night temperature differentials in Summer. |
| Soil composition | Alluvial, very deep, sandy-clay, with clay areas, rich in pebbles. |
| Harvest | Merlot was harvested on September 2nd, the Cabernet franc on October 3rd and the C. Sauvignon 2 days after. The selected grapes have been de-stemmed and pressed very softly, within a few minutes from the harvest, without adding sulphur dioxide to maintain the biodiversity of the yeasts. |
| Wine making | Fermentation and maceration were favoured with frequent manual punching down. The maceration lasted 10 5 days. |
| Aging | In used oak barrels (225 and 500 liters) for 24 months, on the lees (on the yeasts). Each barrel was stirred manually once a week. After the ageing, the wine was gradually subjected to several decantings to clear it (then it is not filtered). At the end, Atis was reconstituted in a large tank and left to mix in a natural way for about 4 months. Finally, we refined it in the bottle for 14 months, in the best storage conditions.
