Four different grapes
Quarter is a very special white wine from Costantino. This wine is made from four different white grapes; two native species and two international species. But that's not why the wine is special. The grapes are vinified together. Most blends are made from finished products that are blended to achieve a certain result. Quarter is different. These grapes are mixed from the start, being gently pressed and fermented together. This makes it difficult to predict what the result will be, which means no Quarter is the same!
Organic... naturally!
Quarter, like all Costantino wines, is an organically produced wine. The owner, Leonardo, explains to us that to him, this is the only way to make wine. He compares using chemicals in farming to taking medication for the body. At a certain point, the body can no longer function without it, he says. And that, obviously, isn’t very good. Add to that Leonardo’s sulfite intolerance and this explains his great passion for organic wines low on sulfites, without unnecessary additives.
Vinified together
The grapes are picked by hand in the last week of September. They are allowed to remain in contact with the skins for another six hours before being gently pressed. Finally, the wine is fermented in steel tanks at a controlled temperature.
Different, every time
Quarter is a complex wine. As Leonardo himself says: every time you smell, you get something different. This wines’ taste is also complex, delicate florals combine with notes of fruit and honey. Quarter has a pleasant freshness and a long, persistent finish. The wine is ideal to combine with fish, vegetable soup and white meat.
