90% Pecorino &Chardonnay/10% Trebbiano. The majority of the Concrete Bianco blend comes from De Fermo's 2.5 ha. of Pecorino (30 years average vine age) and 2.5 ha. of Chardonnay (the latter planted way back in 1926). In both cases, the fruit is harvested earlier than for De Fermo's single-variety bottlings of Pecorino and Chardonnay. The balance of the Concrtet blend is from an experimental half-hectare plot of Trebbiano and other varieties. All are certified-biodynamic and harvested by hand. The bunches are partly destemmed and partly left in whole clusters, macerated for a few hours, pressed in an old-school vertical pressoir and then fermented with native yeasts and no temperature control in tank. The wine is aged in concrete tanks--hence the very literal name--for 6-7 months and bottled without fining or flitering or sulfur (used judiciously at racking only. Concrete is classified as a Vino Bianco, so the only geographical indicator on the bottle is "L.A." for the locale of Loreto Apruntino.

Country: Italy

It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.
