Menti Giovanni

Giovanni Menti Winery is a family-run estate deeply rooted in the tradition of biodynamic agriculture, producing natural wines that reflect the volcanic richness of our territory. With over a century of winemaking history, spanning four generations, our journey is driven by passion and a profound respect for the land. The Menti family has always aimed to cultivate vines with care, producing wines that evoke the “ancient” methods of winemaking. Our commitment to biodynamic principles means that we work in harmony with nature, without the use of chemicals, to ensure that each wine we produce is a true expression of our terroir. Nestled in a region renowned for its unique volcanic soils, we are proud to share our heritage with visitors who value tradition, sustainability, and authenticity. At Giovanni Menti Winery, we seek to connect people with the same respect and love for nature that guides our work, inviting them to experience our passion in every bottle.

Our wines are crafted with the utmost care and dedication to natural processes, using biodynamic agriculture to preserve the integrity of the land. The Roncaie sui Lieviti is a pet-nat sparkling wine, unfiltered and fermented with natural yeasts, ideal for light, refreshing aperitifs. Riva Arsiglia, a white wine from old vines, undergoes long fermentation with native yeasts and is bottled unfiltered, offering a dry and well-structured profile perfect for pairing with a variety of meals, except for red meats and strong cheeses. Monte del Cuca is an orange wine made from Garganega grapes, fermented on the skins and aged on its lees for a year, making it a great companion to cheeses, fatty fish, and boiled meats. Omomorto is a Metodo Classico sparkling wine from Durella grapes, known for its freshness and acidity, with a sharp finish that complements fish-based dishes. For those seeking something sweeter, Albina, a passito wine, is an exquisite dessert wine, while Vin de Granaro, a sweet balsamic wine aged for 6 to 10 years, pairs beautifully with bold cheeses like gorgonzola. Each of our wines is a reflection of our dedication to natural winemaking, preserving the purity of the vine and the health of our consumers.
