Mare antico BACK TO WINES

Mare antico

Mare Antico is the wine that best represents Decugnano dei Barbi. The name itself evokes that ancient sea on which our vineyards now thrive.

The grapes come from our oldest vineyards, their roots sinking into sandy soils rich in seashells, capturing the essence of the place and transforming it into a delightful drop of wine.

We are truly proud to offer this wine that embodies the true essence of our work.

Mare Antico: the new expression of "IL" Bianco.

Until a few years ago, this wine had a different name. It was called "IL" Bianco di Decugnano dei Barbi.

The label represents, in the black part, that mysterious sea that once covered the lands of Decugnano. And that has now become our terroir. 

And it is from this terroir that, with the magic of winemaking, we extract the soul of our land to transform it into a drop of wine

A delightful and captivating discovery that will leave you speechless.

The old attire: "IL" Bianco.
The old attire: "IL" Bianco.

The old label, a minimalist and oval icon with the inscription "Decugnano dei Barbi," was born in the 1970s, exuding a timeless aura of authenticity. 

Over the years, it has been gently updated to reflect the spirit of the times, but never betraying its original essence. And while the world changed around us, this "old" label endures, still present in Umbria, our historic market, where it continues to fascinate those customers who have grown fond of its timeless style.
