The Path
In Predappio, the work is built around reading site before cellar: Fattoria Casetto dei Mandorli names Alessandro Nicolucci as oenologist, and Fattoria Nicolucci does the same in Predappio Alta. The discipline is in the details that can be observed and managed—land form, exposure, seasonal timing, and the patient labor that lets the vineyard hold its character without being forced.
The Work Today
Sangiovese sits at the center of the program, and Nicolucci states the method plainly: "the geographic position, the sunlight exposure of the vineyards, and careful working, at the right times and in the right ways, are the requirements that have allowed us to produce 6,000 bottles of very high-quality Sangiovese." The logic is straightforward trade work: site, light, timing, and restraint are treated as production tools. The scale stays limited at 6,000 bottles, which keeps the emphasis on precision and consistency rather than volume.
Signature
The named wines associated with Alessandro's signature are Riserva di Sangiovese: Predappio di Predappio – Vigna del Generale, Predappio di Predappio – Vigna del Generale, I Mandorli, Tre Rocche, and Nero di Predappio. Each one ties the work back to place by name, which is the point: the style is carried through origin, repetition, and close attention to how a site is tended over time.
