A white wine from Casale del Giglio in Lazio, Central Italy, made entirely from Bellone, an ancient native grape. The fruit comes from a tiny historic vineyard near Anzio, south of Rome, with vines over 60 years old that are ungrafted.
The wine is rich, ample and broad, with a silken texture, ripe tropical fruit, zingy acidity and salty, iodine-like coastal minerality. It is made with 48-hour cold skin-maceration, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and ageing in stainless steel on fine lees.
