Interesting facts
The name of the semi-dry white wine "Edda" translates from the Salento dialect as "she," pronounced "Lei" in Italian. "Edda" embodies the feminine, sensual soul of San Marzano. The wine remarkably combines firm acidity and enveloping, elegant warmth, sweet fruitiness, and spicy minerality. The work on the refinement and longevity of this wine, produced from Chardonnay and several indigenous Apulian varieties, is carried out with great attention every year. The harvest is hand-picked starting from August 10. The grapes are separated from the stems and left for several hours for cryomaceration. The next step is gentle pressing of the must and subsequent static cold decantation, which occurs naturally. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in French oak barrels. The wine is then aged on the lees in French oak barrels for 4 months with weekly bâtonnage. The wine has a storage potential of 3-5 years.
About the Manufacturer
The Feudi di San Marzano winery (Cantine San Marzano) was founded in 2003 in the Apulia region, but grape cultivation in this land began several millennia ago. Historical evidence shows that grapes were grown here in the 7th century BC, and the Greeks referred to this area as Enotria, meaning "land of wine." Interestingly, the current owners of the Cantine San Marzano estate and Farnese Vini borrowed the grape growing method from Ancient Greece, known as "alberello" — "bush" vine. This method was mentioned in the works of Xenophon and was more progressive than the "trailing" vine. Feudi di San Marzano has an impressive 500 hectares of vineyards, mainly located on the red soil of the municipality of San Marzano. Almost all vineyards are planted with local varieties. The main principle of Feudi di San Marzano is to preserve and utilize the remarkable Apulian varieties. Just take a look at the range of wines produced by Feudi di San Marzano to see the real embodiment of this principle. The products of Feudi di San Marzano are represented in more than 60 countries worldwide, including Germany, Switzerland, the UK, the Netherlands, the USA, Canada, Japan, and Brazil.
