Michael, natural wine producer

American by birth and Apulian by adoption, Michael has an innate passion for the world of fermentation and natural wine. Together with a group of friends (all ex-brewers), he started a winery in 2019 that produces refined and excellent natural wines. Without ever ceasing to experiment, they now produce more than 15 different wines, including some made using the classic champenoise method.

Detailed Programme

Michael will welcome you into the heart of the Apulian countryside, where there was once a farm for raising dairy cows, later abandoned, and which has now become a winery. The land is cultivated strictly according to organic principles and, in the vineyard, everything is done by hand, from the management of the vines to the harvest.

At the beginning of the wine tour, Michael will walk you through the vineyard and explain how he and his partners take care of it organically. All this while sipping a first glass of wine to welcome you.

Michael will then take you on a tour of the cellar, explaining the entire transformation process from grape to fermentation, ageing, refining and bottling.

During your visit to the cellar, you will have the unique opportunity to take part in the production process of wine made according to the classic champenoise method, performing the disgorgement (with the possibility of buying and taking home the bottle that you will have disgorged). If you have never heard of it, disgorgement is an ancient technique that allows the yeast to be released from the bottle after the second fermentation.

Finally, you will be able to relax during a guided tasting of five locally produced natural wines, accompanied by an Apulian aperitif consisting of the typical “focaccia a livre” from Sammichele di Bari and olives. Here, you will have time to chat with Michael and ask him all the questions you want to learn more about his story as a natural wine producer.
