Interview with La Maliosa’s Antonella Manuli in her Tuscan Maremma hills vineyard.
The Metodo Corino is a patented method for natural farming and wine-making, created by Lorenzo Corino and Antonella. It involves alot of ‘back to basic’ essentials, like taking good care of your soil and avoiding anything that counters the natural process of obtaining and maturing wines. The net result is a wine that is good for you and for the environment.

Uni is a stately, rich, complex yet easy drinking apricot & umami essence of a wine that is super small production.
Coming from the wild part of Tuscany, Maremma, the La Maliosa farm carefully crafts their 00 wines (nothing added, nothing removed: only fruit) prioritizing local traditional grapes , like procanico, the hyper local grape used to make this orange wine. Macerated for three weeks on the skins, Uni then ages for seven months in stainless steel tanks.
This natural wine comes from 100% volcanic, old vine procanico, the ancient grape native to Maremma Tuscany, a relative of trebbiano. The rare Tuscan volcanic soils of Pitigliano, where the old vineyard is, give depth and minerality to this wine that naturally expresses fantastic floral, herbal and spice flavors, like lavander and sage and turmeric.
