Federico Mencaroni Winery
Time is our rarest ingredient.
Metodo Classico crafted entirely in our winery, low-yield vineyards, hand-harvested grapes and lees ageing that, for selected labels, extends up to ten years.
A small family-owned winery in Corinaldo, in the Marche region of Italy.
Fewer bunches. Greater concentration, balance and character.
From the base wine to secondary fermentation and disgorgement, every stage is carried out entirely at our winery.
Extended ageing creates depth, complexity and elegance.
A thriving agricultural ecosystem, cultivated in harmony with nature’s rhythms.
THE MENCARONI METODO CLASSICO
A defining choice.
We do not produce Metodo Classico simply as part of our range.
We produce it because it represents who we are.
Every bottle is crafted entirely in-house, from low-yield vineyards through long lees ageing, allowing the wine to evolve naturally, without compromise.
Some of our wines remain on their lees for up to ten years.
This is where time becomes part of the wine.
THE VINEYARD AS AN ECOSYSTEM
Cultivating balance.
Every great wine begins long before it reaches the cellar.
In our vineyards we encourage spontaneous ground cover, protect biodiversity and preserve the natural vitality of the soil.
Wild herbs, beneficial insects, living humus and careful manual work create a balanced ecosystem capable of expressing the true identity of our land.
Certified organic farm. By choice, our wines are currently not labelled as organic.
BASSE RESE, MASSIMA ESPRESSIONE
Quality begins with restraint.
Every vine is carefully managed to produce only a limited number of grapes.
For some of our finest red wines, we leave just a single bunch on each vine.
A deliberate choice that dramatically reduces production while increasing concentration, balance and character.
For us, value is not measured by the number of bottles produced, but by the intensity each bottle is able to express.
ELEGANCE & CULTURE
Beyond wine
Wine is agriculture, but it is also memory, landscape, hospitality and culture.
It begins in the vineyard and finds its fullest expression around the table, where people, places and stories come together.
Every Mencaroni bottle seeks to express not only its terroir, but also a vision of elegance built on authenticity, balance and depth.
A SMALL FAMILY WINERY
Four generations. One shared vision.
For generations we have cultivated these hills with the belief that time should be respected, never rushed.
Remaining a family-owned winery allows us to oversee every stage of production, from vineyard to bottle.
Every decision reflects a personal commitment, and every wine tells the story of our relationship with this land.
SIGNATURE WINES
The truest expression of our work.
A carefully selected collection that embodies our philosophy through time, precision and balance.
At its heart is our long-aged Pas Dosé Metodo Classico, the symbol of the Mencaroni identity.

Time. Vineyards. Hands.

Because some things simply need time.
