PURSUING QUALITY WITH DEDICATION. In a medium-sized company such as ours, the philosophy can only be to focus on one goal: quality.
Every choice in our company takes on extreme importance and implies absolute dedication and attention to every detail. No shortcuts are allowed, neither in the vineyard nor in the cellar. Each vintage is interpreted for what it is, without seeking any kind of homologation.

Colour
Brilliant ruby red with violet reflections.
Aromas

grilled meats or, in any case, with main courses that do not involve very elaborate and lengthy cooking.

very complex nose, the work of the amphorae is felt throughout, their porosity in fact favoured the interchange of oxygen with the outside, enhancing what are the varietal scents. The work of the wood then arrives, with slight notes of toasting and chocolate to give elegance and a touch of classicism.

An excellent accompaniment for important game dishes or those involving complex preparations and long cooking (roasts, braised meats, etc.).

At Colle Acacia we try to approach viticulture by freeing it from the current concepts of recipes to be applied in order to produce ‘well’.
Soil, plants, habitat, flora and fauna, microcosms that are created in the union between these. We observe the needs of the natural complex in front of us and respectfully try to help it achieve balance between all its parts.
At Colle Acacia we try to return to the tradition of the intimate bond between man and nature, using all the modern technical knowledge that can help us achieve the balance of the Natural Complex and its elements.
