Colli della Sabina
Wine · PDO · 25 municipalities
Recognized since 1999, the Colli della Sabina DOC spans 25 municipalities in Lazio, including Forano and Cantalupo in Sabina. This denomination distinguishes itself from neighboring Lazio appellations by mandating that all bottling occur strictly within its delimited production zone, while completely omitting any Riserva category or wood-aging requirements for both its red and white styles. The base Bianco requires a minimum of 50% Malvasia del Lazio, with yields capped at 10.0 tonnes per hectare. This specific varietal focus yields a straw-yellow wine with a delicate, fruity aroma and a minimum alcohol content of 11.0% by volume, ranging from dry to sweet in flavor.
