Production Notes
Old bush-trained vines in rich clay soils deliver depth and character. Hand-harvested in October, softly pressed, five-day maceration. Two years in steel, then one in bottle to finish beautifully refined

Cote di Franze
Cote di Franze, located in Cirò, embodies centuries of winemaking tradition. Brothers Francesco and Vincenzo Scilanga, raised on the family farm, mastered production techniques from an early age. Their 9-hectare organic vineyard cultivates native Gaglioppo and Greco Bianco, including 2 hectares of century-old bush-trained vines at 9,000 plants per hectare. Named after its unique terroir, rich in clay, the winery produces wines with exceptional texture and aroma. With deep-rooted passion and dedication, Cote di Franze continues a family legacy, crafting wines that honor the heritage and excellence of Cirò.
