Cesanese Fera igp

Fera, “she who is fruitful,” was the goddess who protected nature, wild animals, freed slaves, woods, and harvests. She was also the guardian of gardens and a beloved figure in ancient cults across central Italy. This deep red wine pays homage to authenticity—a wine that knows how to surprise, an alchemy of enveloping tannins, with a long and subtly spiced finish. Fera is the goddess rediscovered in a wine with intense aromas of ripe red fruits like cherry and plum, accented by spicy notes of black pepper and hints of aromatic herbs.

Lazio

Historically the vineyards around Rome have been important areas for the production of white wine. The ancient Romans praised the local wines, although it is fabled that Horace most admired the red Falernian and Caecuban from the southern coast and Campania. The name Frascati is synonymous with Latium as well as the legendary white wine Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefascione. It is said that this last wine gained its unusual name, meaning "It is!" repeated three times, after it was scrawled on a cellar door by a servant who was sent to seek out drinking establishments that served wine suitable for the bishop for whom he worked.
