About him: the grapes of the Due Parole come from a small particle of Ottonese vineyard.

These are centenary vines with a free foot, planted in 1919 on sandy soil in Contrada San Martino in Priverno. On the occasion of the 100 years of the vineyard's life (1919-2019) they decided to put on sale 100 bottles of the 187 produced in the 2017 vintage. The label designed by the illustrator Giovanni Simoncelli, tells through the illustrations a line of the time in which are marked the different passages of witness in the management of the vineyard. It starts in 1919, when Domenico Antonio D'Amici (Emiliano's great-grandfather) returned from the great war and planted the first vines, passing through 1950 the year in which his grandfather Costantino Giorgi married Agostina D'Amici daughter of Domenico Antonio and began to cultivate it . To arrive in 1987, the year in which Uncle Mario started to take care of the vineyard, up to 2017, the first year of Sete management. Due Parole is a complex wine, dry and powerful but at the same time savory, mineral, straight and persistent with an alcoholic part and a well-present body that well tell the 2017 vintage, hot and arid. It's a wine that is not afraid of aging as well as the plants from which the grapes come, to drink calmly enjoying the many evolutions that take place in the glass with the passage of time. It goes well with aged cheeses, white meats, soups or legume soups, smoked meats or dry pastries. The capsule is made of natural wax!
