Corvagialla Farm

The Winery

Corvagialla was founded in 2007 around a small house surrounded by four hectares of land, in an enchanted place overlooking the “Calanchi dell’alta tuscia”.
The name comes from the ancient denomination of the land and we decided to maintain it even if the origin is now obscure. We started with the plantation of 300 olive trees of Frantoio and Leccino varieties. Then vegetable garden, fruit trees, chickens, geese, goats and donkeys, all in company of dogs and cats.
The grandfathers winery between Rhine and Moselle was our inspiration when first planting the vineyard in 2010.

Since 2018 Corvagialla produces certified organic wines.

As for the Olives trees we chose varieties of the areas, Sangiovese, Ciliegiolo for the reds and Grechetto d’Umbria, Trebbiano and Vermentino for the whites.
The chosen training system is Simple Guyot.

MISSION

Our priority is, above all, to respect nature. We practice a clean agriculture applying the principles of biodynamic. In the vineyard the grapes are cultivated without the use of herbicides, fertilizers and chemical treatments. The harvest is done by hand, controlling every bunch.
The fermentation in our cellar takes place only with the sulfur dioxide produced naturally without the addition of sulphites, enzymes and activators even after fermentation.

The wine is bottled locally in our cellar. We don’t use any filtration system, instead we wait for a static decantation after fermentation. Therefore it is possible for natural sediments to form in the bottle.
