round 500 bottles made, depending on the vintage. Pure, Alpine, and electric — green apple, lemon zest, white flowers, and a saline mineral precision that only Dolomite altitude and biodynamic farming can produce, with a delicate effervescence and a clean, refreshing finish that disappears too quickly. The 2025 Cantina Furlani "Ephem" is biodynamically farmed Chardonnay from small steep plots surrounding the village of Povo above Trento — hand-harvested in small boxes, native yeast, minimal sulfur, bottled young to preserve its ephemeral Alpine energy. Matteo Furlani is the fourth generation on this land and widely considered the most radical and gifted producer of pét-nat in Italy — "Ephem" is the name that tells you everything: this wine exists briefly, brilliantly, and exactly once. Open it cold and don't wait.
