2023 Casale Del Giglio Bellone
Casale del Giglio's Bellone "Anthium" showcases an indigenous grape variety from Lazio that was historically favored by Roman elites and cited by Pliny the Elder. Nearly lost to phylloxera, Bellone has been revived by this renowned winery committed to preserving the region's viticultural heritage. The grape thrives in warm sandy soils near Rome, benefiting from persistent sea breezes and demonstrating notable vigor and drought resistance.
