The vineyards of Poggio Le Volpi Roma

The vineyards for this white wine are located in Frascati, in the Colle Pisano region, three hundred meters above sea level. The soil is volcanic, rich in red earth and tuff, and situated on hilly terrain. The grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed, and then gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in forty-liter stainless steel vats at a constant temperature. This is followed by aging on lees in stainless steel tanks. Production is handled by the Poggio Le Volpi winery, which guarantees top-quality wines. The origins of this winery date back to the 1920s. Mario Mergè began producing wine and olive oil at that time. He shared his life and work experience with his son Armando, who then passed his knowledge on to his son Felice, making him the third-generation winemaker in his family. He founded the Italian winery Poggio Le Volpi in 1996.
