Az. vitivinicola Petrucca e Vela

In Piglio, on the slopes of Ciociaria, Az. vitivinicola Petrucca e Vela focuses its work on a single denomination, Cesanese del Piglio DOCG, cultivated since 2000 along a family line initiated in 1969. This red wine holds a precise distinction: it is the only Lazio wine to boast the DOCG status, and the winery makes it the absolute center of its identity, without dispersing into a wider range. The regulations stipulate a minimum alcohol content of twelve percent and four months of aging. The management is organic, with winemaking that follows the natural rhythms of the vineyard and an environmental awareness declared as part of the method, not as an embellishment. Cesanese thus becomes the point where artisanal craft meets responsibility towards the land, an indigenous grape variety cultivated with attention to the soil that expresses it. The estate is open for visits and tastings: those who ascend to Piglio can explore the slopes, observe the organic farming practices, and taste at the source Lazio's only DOCG red wine.
