Il Pollenza Srl Conte Aldo Brachetti-Peretti

The passion for the land, the dedication and the constant search for the best cultivation techniques, as well as the high quality standards for the processing of wine, have helped give birth to the "Il Pollenza" winemaking company, located partly in the town of Tolentino and partly in the town of Pollenza.

The estate is located in the beautiful landscape of the hills of Macerata that Count Brachetti–Peretti purchased more than twenty years ago by the Princes Antici Mattei, with a beautiful building of the sixteenth century designed by Sangallo. It covers over 200 hectares, of which about 60 are devoted to vineyards. The winery, technologically advanced, ensures limited production of wines of great quality and with futuristic tools for storing wine. The tanks, on the advice of the great internationally renowed oenologist, Mr. Giacomo Tachis, are in vitrified cement and metal, distinguished by the names of the family.

Rio Maggio

The Rio Maggio wines are the result of this way of thinking: wine is made from a mix of land, labor, surrounding scents, commitment, and is made with its own soul, that must be respected, valued and protected.



The company’s philosophy is precisely to meet the individual varieties aiming to make "wines of the vineyard", also thanks to thinning and repeated passages during harvest, where the best clusters are carefully chosen.



The quality and naturalness of wine are the keystone of the company and production philosophy, witnessed by important choices like hand–picking, the limited use of sulfur, low impact phyto–sanitary products and careful and scrupulous winemaking techniques.



Values that can then be translated into a practical commitment, into attention to the many details and, finally, in a quality product.

Azienda Agraria Claudio Morelli

The current agricultural company is located in the hills on a tuffaceous sandy soil and is made up of about 22 hectares of vineyards and 400 olive trees. They are cultivated in the DOC area of the grapes of Bianchello del Metauro and Sangiovese, and, moreover, the Montepulciano, Cabernet, Vernaccia Rossa grape varieties are grown in six different vineyards located in the hills overlooking the valley of the river Metauro.

The production facility consists of a winery situated in Mondavio, in Sant’Andrea di Suasa locality, and of an aging and bottling cellar in Fano with offices and tasting room.

Modern winemaking equipment are used for the soft pressing of the skins, the temperature control of fermentation, the settling of musts.

In order to achieve maximum results from the organoleptic result of Bianchello, recently the company has introduced an innovative processing system defined in "reduction", which is to avoid the contact of the must, as it is obtained, with the air. This result is achieved by spraying the grapes with liquid carbon dioxide in the form of dry ice. The process ends with skin maceration in the juice at low temperatures from 5 to 12 hours (maceration), after which, the juice is sent on to the fermentation tanks.
The red grapes instead are worked in the traditional way by diversifying fermentation temperatures, maceration times that are more or less long and refinements in steel or in barrels according to the type of wine to be obtained.

The annual production is about 110,000 bottles.
