The wine region of Frascati
Lazio DOC in the Castelli Romani south-east of Rome, well-drained volcanic soils. Malvasia di Candia and Malvasia del Lazio signature (70% min), backed by Trebbiano and Greco. Signature fresh and floral whites with notes of white apple, pear, citrus, white flowers, sweet almond and a volcanic mineral touch, taut and refreshing palate — the Roman aperitif, from the popes to Dolce Vita. Denser Superiore version (DOCG).
The wine region of Lazio
Two-millennia Roman vineyard, predominantly white on the volcanic soils of the Castelli Romani. Frascati DOC as figurehead: fresh, accessible whites based on Malvasia and Trebbiano, notes of green apple, white flowers and almond, slightly bitter finish. Also Bellone and Grechetto. Emblematic red: Cesanese del Piglio DOCG, fleshy with notes of ripe cherry, dry herbs and spice, round tannins.
The word of the wine: Water stress
Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
