Nobilterra Lazio Bianco
A little bit of history…
Castelli Romani is definitely Lazio’s most important viticulture area. Many towns around here have a century-old wine-making tradition that has also been fostered by the volcanic origin of the soils, rich in potassium-based salts and phosphorus, and by the perfect climate, heavily affected by the many lakes.

Description
These vines are planted in the hills South of Rome in volcanic soil, where they are mostly spur-trained, exposed to the South and positively affected by the proximity of the sea and by a fresh and rather damp climate. The grapes are hand-picked in the first decade of October; a classic fermentation process in steel tanks gives this wine its smooth and palate-pleasing characteristics.
It is made from a blend of Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes.
Organoleptic Analysis
It is straw-blonde with a winey, lingering and rather fruit-forward bouquet. It feels delicate, harmonious to the palate with a lingering aromatic aftertaste. It has excellent minerality. It is mouth-pleasing.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs with every course, especially with traditional Roman dishes and fish-based recipes.
