According to Greek mythology, the person who discovered wine is thought to be Stafilio, Bacco's son. The name of the village Staffolo could derive either from Bacco's heir or from the Greek "stafilč", which literally means "bunch of grapes".

The great care taken in the conservation of this "wine culture" today allows us to present Salmągina. The natural lay of the land in a part of our vineyard, the best selection, the shrewd cultivation, the careful pruning together with the finest choice of the seasons crop wich is harvested at exactly the right moment, enhance the qualities of this wine. Furthermore "soft" pressing is carried out immediately in wooden crates. The grapes are then fermented at a rigidly controlled temperature, matured in large vats and then bottles.

All this elements go into the making of this cherished wine. The typical characteristics of Verdicchio are maximumly expressed in this wine making it a captivating, first class blend.
