Casale del Giglio was founded in 1967 by Dr. Berardino Santarelli, a native of Amatrice, and is located in the Pontine Marshes in Le Ferriere, municipality of Aprilia, in the province of Latina, about 50 km south of Rome. This territory, represented, compared to other areas of Lazio and other Italian regions, an environment to be explored from the wine standpoint. For this reason in 1985 he gave life to the research and development project "Casale del Giglio", authorized by the Department of Agriculture of the Lazio Region.

Story The Bellone grape is vigorous and resistant to drought – a guarantee for wine quality and balance while its plump, golden, thick-skinned grapes hang in elongated, cone-shaped bunches. A persistent sea breeze contributes to the perfect ripening of the grapes while a perfect concentration of sugar and notable acidity help to underline the wine’s pronounced mineral notes.
Origin Anzio
Climate Our more than 60 year old vines thrive in this small, unique microclimate or terroir where a perfect interdependence of vine, soil, climate and tradition, essential to the production of a great wine, is to be found.
Soil composition The composition of the soil in what is now our breezy vineyard near the coastal town of Anzio enabled it to resist the disastrous phylloxera epidemic of the late 19th century and to preserve the area’s local ungrafted (free of rootstock) vines.
Harvest The harvest takes place in late September.
Wine making Vinification takes place in two stages: first, maceration on the skins to encourage extraction of the aromas resulting from the terroir, then, after soft pressing, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts for around 10 2 days at 18-20 °C.
Allergens Contains sulphites
