Tasting notes
This is a complex, dry white wine. Deep straw yellow color with sparkling, golden tears. The nose is expressive and perfectly blends white fruit, an earthy undertone and vanilla notes together; let this wine sit in a carafe and this nose will explode! Harmonious texture with a great deal of 'distinction', thanks aging three times in stainless steel, amphora and oak barrels. This also results in an extremely long and complex finish. This is a great value for money masterpiece of wines! Demands a sturdy piece of ripened hard cheese, a celeriac roasted whole with truffle in the oven, a partridge in grape leaf, a risotto with the wildest mushrooms... Serve at 14 °C after one hour in a carafe!
Wine Story
In 1945 Giovanni Brannetti purchased a vineyard in the Roman countryside and began making wine together whis his wife, Ida. They were later joined by their youngest son, Giuseppe, who had been passionate about wine making from an early age. Ever since, both father and son have been making wine with a careful eye on the protection of the environment (for example, they have never used fertilzers or weed killers). Daniela, Giuseppe's wife, took over responsibility for marketing the wine. Initially, the family made only cask wine, but they have continued to imrpove the quality of their wines constantly throughout the years. In 1986, Giuseppe and Daniela expanded their business through the purchase of a vineyard in the Appia Antica Park and started their organic farm 'Riserva della Cascina'. The farm was granted an organic certification for its production methods in 1994. In 2011, Silvia, the oldest daughter of Giuseppe and Daniela, having completed a PhD in Mathematics, decided to join the family business, ensuring a continuity which now stretches over several generations.
