Lazio, Italy— Produced by the Cistercian nuns of the Abbazia di Vitorchiano! A lovely, gentle, unadorned wine that is an expression of the monastic life of the people who produce it, from equal proportions of the grape varieties Ciliegiolo and Sangiovese (a clone similar to Montepulciano d’Abruzzo) cultivated in the area around the Monastery. The wine undergoes a 15-day natural fermentation without any forced stabilization. Very pale red, this ethereal wine coats the palate with hints of red fruit, tea, pipe tobacco and no tannins. Incredibly crushable, this red loves a light chill and is versatile, working with antipasti, seafood or pizza night. No S02.
