2020 Daniele Piccinin Epochè
Description
WINEMAKER: Daniele Piccinin
REGION: Veneto, IT
VARIETY: Durella
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic
The grapes are whole bunch pressed only for the base wine, which ferments in steel except for a small part (10%) which ferments in wooden barrels; yeasts are kept in suspension until the end of January and then leave them to rest for a month. Towards the end of February a pied de cuve is made with dried grapes; once ready, all grapes are crushed and estimate the amount of sugars to calculate how much base can be used to make sparkling. Base wine and must are then blended at the same temperatures, bottled and then rest on lees for 24 months. Disgorged by adding the same wine without dosagé.
Daniele Piccinin started not as a winemaker but as a restaurateur, working both as a chef and front of house. It was during this time that he tasted a wine made by Angiolino Maule (president of VinNatur). He was so impressed by it that he decided to visit Maule and learn more about how he made his wine. He soon became his pupil and in 2006 Daniele's first wine was born.

Born in Newtown
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
