The name commemorates the batthe that freed

Ripatransone (where the vineyard is located) from

Francesco Sforza. This is our female wine: a delicate,

flowery, intriguingly scented wine. Suitable even for

aperitifs, summer evenings and informal occasions.

The name of the grape variety, “Passerina”, stems

from the small size of the grapes and the fact that the

sparrows show a passion for its grapes with their

particularly tasty pulp.
