Description

Sauvignon, originally from Bordeaux, is a vine that prefers training methods that do not expose the bunches to direct sunlight, thus avoiding oxidation, which could easily occur due to the presence of photolabile aromas.
The grapes are therefore not "peeled" and retain their uniqueness.
It was introduced in Agro Pontino, in the province of Latina, after extremely positive feedback, the result of long and careful research.


GRAPE AND WINEMAKING

Sauvignon 100%.
It is usually harvested in the very first days of September, in order to preserve a good acidity level of the grapes, at the same time ensure good maturation and avoid the appearance of an excessive vegetal scent.
After careful soft pressing and scrupulous selection of the free-run must, the alcoholic fermentation is induced very quickly, in order to preserve all the typical aromatic characteristics of the vine.
Once this phase is completed, the temperature of the new wine is reduced to around 8° C. to avoid the start of malolactic fermentation.
The necessary decanting and bottling follow, scheduled for January/February.


ORGANOLEPTIC EXAMINATION

Bright straw yellow colour; intense and fragrant aroma, with hints of sage and nettle; fresh taste, very mineral flint, with good structure.


SUGGESTED COMBINATIONS

It goes well with seafood risotto or wild herb omelette.

Lazio

Casale del Giglio

Casale del Giglio was founded in 1967 by Dr. Berardino Santarelli, originally from Amatrice, and is located in the Agro Pontino in the locality of 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 regions of Italy, an environment to be explored from the point of view of wine.
For this reason, the “Casale del Giglio” research and development project was launched in 1985, authorized by the Agriculture Department of the Lazio Region.
