FLO’ – Cesanese I.G.P. LAZIO

Vini Rossi

0.75

Cesanese is a grape variety of very ancient and mysterious origins, already cultivated in the Roman countryside as far back as the 8th century BC. It has always been considered a “generous” variety, which is why our winegrowers tend it with dedication and respect. For the ancients, Cesanese wine was an ideal companion for convivial occasions and celebratory toasts; today we want people to discover it for its fruity notes and its extremely pleasant drinkability.
