Castel de Paolis, Via Val de Paolis snc, 00046 Grottaferrata ( Roma)
IGT Lazio Bianco, Donna Adriana is one of the good wines offered by the Castel de Paolis winery in Grottaferrata. A product on the 'card' since 1993, created from a blend of Viognier grapes in large majority and Malvasia del Lazio. Grapes characterised by a strong personality and a pleasant aromatic charge, due in large part to the soils in which the vines are rooted. Soils of volcanic origin, with good exposure and an ideal microclimate. We are about 250 metres above sea level, with vines that can be over 30 years old. After harvesting, the grapes are taken to the cellar for immediate processing. The mass is divided into two parts. Approximately 85% of the mass is processed in steel tanks, while the remainder takes the barrique route. What results is a beautiful wine characterised by a golden yellow colour, with very intense and persistent fruit notes. Then exotic and white-fleshed fruit. Scents of remarkable finesse that prepare for a sip of absolute elegance. The palate reveals a pleasantly savoury, soft and persistent wine. On the everyday table, this Latium white easily accompanies fish dishes, but also elaborate first courses, white meats, medium mature cheeses and goat's cheese.
The Castelli Romani, and in particular the Grottaferrata area, with its 270 metres above sea level, the right distance from the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the volcanic soil, combined with a climate that is one of the mildest and most pleasant in Italy, constitute ideal conditions for the production of quality wines. The members of the Santarelli family are certain of this. From the early seventies, out of pure passion and love for the land, they began to purchase small plots of land, almost entirely planted with vines. Until the mid-1980s, however, the grapes produced were delivered to the local wine cellars. Then, in 1985, thanks to the meeting between Giulio Santarelli and Professor Attilio Scienza, the decision was taken to set up a new winery called Castel De Paolis, to produce great wines from the area. The name derives from an ancient castle dating back to the Middle Ages, which in turn stands on ruins dating back to Roman times. To this day, the winery's cellar makes use of the precious 'Cisterna Romana', in which the barriques with the great red wines for ageing are stored.
