We were live for a VeroTalk live with Antonella Manuli, founder of natural, organic, biodynamic and vegan farm and winery in Tuscany, La Maliosa. We tasted the natural wines and organic extra virgin olive oils we just imported this spring from Antonella’s farm. Sommeliers Ruth Ryberg guided us through the wine tasting and Burley Tuggle of Divino Tasting Room delved into olive oils.

Woman made Saturnalia Bianco, on VinePair’s list of Top 15 Best Orange Wines, is an award winning, unfiltered and delicious skin contact orange wine made from old vine procanico & trebbiano grapes cultivated in volcanic soil.
This natural wine is made from the patented Metodo Corino, based on regenerative farming principles. Nothing is added but grapes! Made with unpressed, free run juice with native yeast fermentation. A two week maceration imparts a dark amber color. Aged only in stainless steel tanks, it has aromas of candied fruit, dried apricot and ginger.
It has pleasant acidity and tannins, and is balanced with a long finish. A pretty deep orange color, it is a great wine for difficult food pairings, it pairs with almost any dish.
