Casale Del Giglio Cesanese is crafted from the indigenous Cesanese varietal, which is native to Lazio, Italy. This wine exemplifies the winery’s dedication to restoring and showcasing local grape varieties. The grapes are cultivated in the diverse soils of the Agro Pontino Valley, providing a distinct minerality and complexity to the wine. Traditional winemaking techniques are employed, including careful extraction and fermentation in stainless steel, to retain the varietal’s vibrant character. While this wine does not undergo oak aging, its time in stainless steel allows the pure fruit expressions to shine through.
