From the Alps to the Mediterranean, Sfera is a collaboration with artisanal wineries across Italy to explore unique Terroirs and shine a light on small production of wines that deserve to be seen and tasted. Sfera takes us through granite hillsides, high-altitude vineyards, and coastal slopes. The project focuses on seeking out lesser-known native grape varieties with untapped potential—hidden gems waiting to be revealed. The main concept at the heart of Sfera is working together. We partner with winemakers who are eager to experiment, to bottle something truly special—something outside their usual lineup—in small, character-filled batches that speak of place, craft, and creativity.Â
Fattoria del Monticino Rosso has different plots located in two differents valleys which are closed to each other. Valle del Senio, which takes the name from the Senio River, is surrounded by forests, which mitigate the temperatures in the area and bring significant temperature ranges. Valle del gesso literally “Chalk Valley” is so called precisely because of the presence of chalk in the soils, a characteristic that, together with the hills on which the vineyards are planted, contributes to the minerality and elegance of the local Sangiovese
