Description

The typical characters of Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc - when soil, climate and technology strongly contribute to their exaltation - are highly and clearly expressed. Deep in colour, it has a complex, warm bouquet with impressions of ripe blackberries followed by an enveloping, spicy taste with firm but graceful tannins.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1979
  • Oenologist: Riccardo Cotarella, Pier Paolo Chiasso
  • Bottles produced: 3.800.000
  • Hectares: 370
The company was founded in 1979 in an area between Lake Bolsena in Lazio and the city of Orvieto, a hilly area with similar climatic and soil characteristics which, as demonstrated by the long winemaking traditions of these places, is particularly suitable for viticulture. Thanks to the numerous investments made over the years, it has grown from a small family business into a successful business in a short time. Good production, with the absence of the new Ogrà, the result of a project on the Syrah in Alta Tuscia conducted in collaboration with Attilio Scienza. Read more
