The Ancòra wine from Cantina Vin Viandante
The 2023 harvest presented a complex challenge for Vin Viandante Winery. However, thanks to the determination and passion of the team composed of Cesare, Gino, Virginia, Silvia, Gianmarco, and Eleonora, “Ancora” was born. This wine symbolizes the resilience of the Bombino Bianco, capable of anchoring itself with its aromas and freshness even in a challenging year. “Ancora” reflects the commitment and dedication of those who contributed to creating a unique product, capable of conveying the essence of a land and a demanding vintage.
The winemaking
“Ancora” is made from 100% Bombino Bianco grapes sourced from Doganella di Ninfa, in the province of Latina. This vineyard, in its first year of production, was meticulously cared for. The harvest was carried out manually, ensuring the selection of the best clusters. After harvesting, the grapes were pressed whole, a process that helps preserve the delicacy and freshness of the fruit. Fermentation takes place in steel containers, and subsequently, the wine is kept on fine lees for six months. This step imparts complexity and structure to the final product, maintaining an alcohol content of 12%.
Tasting the wine of the winery
The wine presents a bright straw-yellow color. On the nose, “Ancora” offers a complex bouquet ranging from fresh, tangy fruit to delicate floral notes. Herbal nuances gradually emerge, adding an additional layer of depth. On the palate, the wine stands out for its lively acidity and sapidity, characteristics that enhance its freshness and make it extremely pleasant and balanced.
Food Pairings
“Ancora” is a versatile wine, ideal for accompanying a wide range of dishes. Its freshness and acidity make it perfect for seafood appetizers, fish carpaccios, and summer salads. It also pairs wonderfully with vegetable dishes and fresh cheeses, enhancing the flavors without overpowering them. Even with light pasta dishes, such as those dressed with fresh tomato and basil, “Ancora” manages to express all its elegance and finesse, making every meal a memorable experience.

The wandering winery is not just a romantic notion but a true journey of discovery aimed at selecting the best plots, deeply understanding the historical and cultural traditions of each area. This philosophy translates into wines that embody the essence of each explored place, offering a unique experience in every glass. Keep reading
