Cantina Sabatini

In Atina, at the southeastern edge of the Lazio region, Cantina Sabatini cultivates a mountain denomination where altitude and volcanic soils shape reds of distinct character. The DOC revolves around a trio of international grape varieties – Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Merlot – grown across the twelve municipalities of the area, an unusual profile for Lazio, which is more often associated with white wines. From this foundation, the winery offers several types: red, riserva, and even a white, all exceeding the legal minimum of 12.0% vol., a sign that grapes in the local continental climate ripen consistently. This collection reveals a secluded corner of the region, where elevation and the volcanic origin of the soil are as crucial as varietal choice in defining the taste. Sabatini thus interprets a circumscribed yet well-identified denomination, where the Bordeaux blend meets a mountain climate rather than a plain. The result is wines that express the essence of Atina more than the trend of a particular grape, anchored in a continental and vertical geography.
