Albafiorita M'ama 2022

M’ama, in Italian ‘He/She Loves Me,’ is an organic white wine made from Soreli and Sauvignon Kretos grapes, ideal for viticulture with a low environmental impact. This Friulian white is aromatic, fruity, and fresh, offering a balanced and highly drinkable experience. The wine’s aroma bursts with tropical fruit and subtle herbal notes, while the palate remains fresh and elegant, finishing with a persistent and pleasing aftertaste. It’s ideal for aperitifs and pairs wonderfully with seafood and white meat dishes.

The label design reflects the flowers found in their vineyards.

Albafiorita M'ama: the Producer

Albafiorita is an organic winery in Latisana, on the Friulian Riviera. For the De Marchi family, adding resistant vines to the productions of their company was a natural choice as they are the ideal solution to achieve their longtime goal of sustainable agriculture. Welcome to their farmhouse and discover the natural beauties and flavours that the territory of Friuli-
Venezia Giulia has to offer.

Albafiorita M'ama: the Philosophy

We are a network of wineries, made up of eight farms operating in different territories between Friuli, Veneto, and Trentino, from the Adriatic Sea to the Dolomites. Guided by enologist Nicola Biasi, we have chosen to produce wines that combine qualitative excellence with tangible sustainability, from the vineyard to the bottle. To do this, we have focused on vines resistant to fungal diseases, also known as PIWI. This safeguarding of the territory, combined with precision viticulture and dedicated, scrupulous enology, allows us to enhance the properties of these new varieties and win over even the most demanding
palates.

PIWI wines: beyond Organics

PIWI wines are produced from fungus-resistant grape varieties, known as PIWI (from the German Pilzwiderstandsfähig), which are bred through natural crossbreeding to resist common vineyard diseases like powdery and downy mildew. These resistant varieties significantly reduce the need for chemical pesticides, making them a cornerstone of sustainable viticulture. As climate change and environmental concerns reshape the wine industry, PIWI wines offer a viable, eco-friendly solution by promoting biodiversity, reducing carbon footprints, and enabling low-intervention farming. With growing interest in organic wines and sustainable agriculture, PIWI wines are increasingly seen as the future of responsible winemaking.
Resistant grape varietals are today the best and most effective way to achieve truly sustainable winemaking. Their natural resistance to fungal diseases allows for a drastic reduction in the number of treatments, for an effective protection of the environment, the territories, and the people.
