Description
The Ancient Romans used the word ‘Pagus’ to identify a rural area of particular agricultural value. This is still true today of Pagus Camilla, part of the vineyard called Le Sondraie, which lies near a natural oasis of the same name. Here, alluvial sediments with elevated mineral content yield a ‘rare’ 100% Vermentino wine.
