Bifaro Magliocco and Guarnaccino PGI

Le Quattro Volte's uncompromising red: from an ancient 1960 bush-trained vineyard, spontaneous fermentation and cement — 4800 bottles

Round, deep and intoxicating: the red from a vineyard with more than sixty years of history to tell.

The Bifaro Magliocco and Guarnaccino PGI from Le Quattro Volte

Bifaro Rosso is born from a rare heritage: an ancient vineyard planted in 1960 and trained as a bush vine, where, according to rural tradition, multiple varietals coexist—Magliocco and Guarnaccino leading the way, along with the historic Greco Nero and Malvasia Bianca. The grapes are hand-picked and then pressed, remaining in contact with the skins for three days; fermentation occurs spontaneously, without any chemical treatment, and aging in concrete preserves the purity of the fruit. This blend of varietals from the same vineyard offers extraordinary emotions: a wine with an intoxicating drinkability, rounded and profound—a red without compromise.
 
 
 

The roots of this Bifaro are deep in tradition

The alberello (bush-trained) is the oldest and most poetic form of the Mediterranean vine: the low, free-standing plant, cup-pruned like a small tree, which southern farmers have cultivated for millennia to withstand wind, sun, and thirst. And our grandparents' vineyards held another wisdom: the mixed plot, where different varieties grew side by side in the same row—a safeguard against difficult years and, at the same time, a recipe for complexity that no modern blend can replicate. The 1960 vineyard from which Bifaro is born is all of this: a living archive of rural Calabria, told in the glass with each harvest.
