The cherry wine known as Visciola del Lupo, a true flagship product of Luca Tenti, is an ancestral product from the Adriatic coast that will bring ancient medieval flavors to your mouth. The first recipe is, in fact, from that era, and was created to improve those wines that deteriorated with the first summer heat by adding local seasonal fruit. Just as the ancient Romans did, by the way. The cherry wine was therefore born out of necessity, with many methods and recipes secretly guarded and passed down by each farming family. This wine is produced using the same method adopted by the Tenti family for generations, adding freshly picked cherries to the red Aleatico wine (the Vernaccia di Pergola). After fermentation, the product is left to rest for several months and bottled in the following spring. Why is it called Visciola del Lupo? The name Visciola del Lupo comes from the cultivation and production area. In fact, ancient maps of the territory refer to the area with the term "Madonna del Guardalupo" due to the presence of a small ancient church depicting this name. The presence of this building is surrounded by an old legend that centers around a wolf, which inspired Luca Tenti to name his main product.
