Tasting Notes

This distinctive wine from Lazio embodies traditional Italian winemaking heritage. Its 14.5% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Marsanne, Roussanne, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect crisp citrus and orchard fruit aromas framed by a clean, mineral finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards exposed to south-east, in the municipality of Blera at an altitude of 380 meters above sea level, trained as sapling on clayey and structured soils. Vinification: soft pressing and alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts in barrique. The wine is aged 16 months in oak barriques. A wine reflecting the volcanic soils and warm climate surrounding Rome.
