Fontanasanta 2024 is Foradori’s Manzoni Bianco from Trentino in northern Italy. It introduces the white side of an estate especially well known for its work with the red variety Teroldego.
Foradori is the standard-bearer for Teroldego, a native variety the estate — led by Elisabetta Foradori and now her children — has elevated to fine- wine status almost single-handedly. Demeter-certified biodynamic since 2002, they use massal selection to preserve Teroldego’s genetic diversity rather than relying on clones. Winemaking is minimal-intervention: indigenous yeasts, no temperature control, unfiltered bottling, with several cuvées aged in buried terracotta amphorae. Pioneering biodynamic viticulture in Alto Adige and reviving a near-forgotten grape into a cult, terroir- driven wine.
