CASALE DEL GIGLIO ANTHIUM BELLONE DI ANZIO BIANCO LAZIO IGT 2022 Vine of very ancient origins, widespread in Lazio already in Roman times and cited by Pliny as "pantastica grape". It is present in the area that goes from the Castelli Romani to the Lepini Mountains, up to the offshoots towards the sea.
TERROR It was born behind Anzio from an old loose-limbed vineyard (vines without rootstock) where, thanks to the nature of the soil, phylloxera was unable to spread. The age of the vines of over 60 years, the direct influence of the sea, the marine soils, make this small area unique for the production of Bellone. We can talk about a specific Terroir, that is, a perfect symbiosis between VINE - SOIL - CLIMATE - TRADITION, true cornerstones for the production of a great wine.
GRAPE VARIETY The Bellone vine has good vigor and resists drought periods well, guaranteeing quality and balance. The bunch has a conical-cylindrical shape and spheroidal berries with very thick golden yellow skin. The constant sea breeze helps to reach full maturation, where excellent sugar concentration and high acidity help to enhance the strong minerality. The harvest takes place at the end of September.
WINEMAKING The winemaking takes place in two phases: maceration on the skins to favor the extraction of the aromas, which thus restore the pedoclimatic characteristics of the Anziate territory. After soft pressing, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts follows, which lasts for approximately 10/12 days. at a temperature of 18/20° C.
ORGANOLEPTIC EXAMINATION Intense yellow color with golden reflections. Sunny wine with hints of well-ripe exotic fruit, such as mango and papaya, contrasted with a consistent acidity that makes this wine suitable for long refinements in the bottle. In the mouth it is very broad, rich and persistent, with light floral and spicy nuances. It stands out for its pronounced flavor and minerality. Very long and persistent aftertaste.
SUGGESTED PAIRINGS “Minestra di Sgavajone”: typical broth soup from the fishermen of Anzio. This native type of fish, often unmarketable, was consumed by the family.
