DAR 2017

Dar - Romagna DOCG Albana Secco 2017

The 2017 vintage in the hills between Romagna and Toscana was shaped by spring frost, a warm, dry summer and naturally low yields, giving our Albana grapes remarkable concentration.

At 250–300 m, our southeast-facing vineyard rises above ancient crystal caves, a site that offers exceptional drainage, mineral purity and a uniquely refined microclimate.

This year, the grapes were hand-harvested at night on the 31st of August, capturing freshness at the coolest moment of the day. Fermentation followed at low temperatures in stainless-steel tanks to preserve the variety’s delicate aromatics.

After bottling, the wine continued to mature quietly in our cellars, developing depth, finesse and the signature elegance of Divinalux.

*** At Divinalux, we use only a refined touch of sulphites—just enough to protect the wine as it ages, without overshadowing its purity. While sulphites may be more noticeable in wine than in food due to the presence of alcohol, they remain discreet for most consumers.

*** In 2017, our Estate received official Organic Certification for all agricultural activities, including the production of wine, olive oil, and other farm products. Although 2017 marks the first year of certified organic status, the Estate had been in conversion since 2013, and even prior to that it was cultivated in accordance with the organic requirements of the Regional Park regulations. As a result, all our wines have been produced according to organic standards for many years; however, from the 2017 vintage onward, we are officially authorized to display the Organic Production Symbol on all our labels.
