Fun Facts: Sfera collaborates with multiple small certified organic Italian farmers to bottle liters of wine in limited runs. They’re keen on giving the grower credit by clearly putting the winery’s name and providence on the back label. This means that although the producers may change, the front labels don’t. Another constant is that the wines are naturally made, and fall into certain guidelines that are lab tested before and after bottling. It’s a win-win, small certified organic producers get to do a fun liter project and we get to explore Italy!
