Things to do in Castelli Romani, Lazio: The Best Wineries & Vineyards

Casale Marchese is built over two ancient Roman cisterns. Earliest references date back to the Papal Bull of Boniface VIII, dated 12 May 1301, where the estate is listed as part of the Annibaldi family assets. The Casale is indicated as the home of the marquis Emilio de’ Cavalieri(1550 – 1602),a famous musician. The estate, of over 50 hectares, lies deep in Frascati DOCG terroir, the buildings nestling in a hilly area covered in vineyards and age-old olive trees.

LA LUNA DEL CASALE® is a family business: inside it there’s my care, a young and well-known oenologist’s talent, my husband’s support, the joyful smile of my children (who sometimes decorate the casks with coloured chalks!), but, most of all, a deeply suitable Territory (the Colli Lanuvini – the hills around Rome), that we go along with by natural processes, a look at organic farming and very low yields. For this reason, our Customers know they can rely on us, from the vineyard to the bottle. The passion I put into this adventure – to product wines and oils of very high quality, with verified methods and without compromises – is really driven by the Colli Lanuvini. To breathe their smell and to enjoy their taste, come and visit us. We — along with the wines of the Colli Lanuvini — wait for you.

Winery di palma riccardo, located on the hills of "castelli romani", produce red and white organic wines. You can visit our vineyard, cellar and enjoy our wines to discover the power' of this beautiful land.

"When I was a child, my grandfather would take me to press the grapes with bare feet. It is a memory that I jealously cherish in my heart." These words by Piero Costantini are enough to explain the great passion that moves the microcosm of Villa Simone. Villa Simone is the splendid farm of the Costantini family and is located in Monteporzio Catone, less than an hour from the center of Rome "

The winery has its roots in history: the name refers to a fountain that had the function of refreshing travelers, built by the will of Pope Innocent XII at the end of the Fifteenth century.The story evolves: in 1959, Fontana di Papa began in the town of Ariccia, becoming in time competitive within the global market: the 150 small and medium producers of the area cooperate to produce a great wine, cultivating 400 hectares of hills and creating a range of first-class products that meet the needs of consumers. The Fontana di Papa commercial policy is based on the production of authentic wines, important numbers and a great value for money.
