The artisan winery of Nicoletta Loreti, Cantina del Tufaio, offers this wine with a typical Frascati-style blend: Malvasia del Lazio and Trebbiano Toscano.
What makes it special, however, is the decision to mature it in oak tonneaux (500-litre barrels), which enriches it with structure and depth.
This is how Aggì was created, a wine dedicated to Grandpa Gigi, produced on soils composed of clay and silica, with a yield of just 6.5 tons of grapes per hectare.
The volcanic origin of the soil is evident right from the first aromas, which recall honey and mineral notes. Spicy and fruity nuances then emerge, which on the palate fully unfold in a rich and enveloping sip.
The maturation in oak is noticeable but does not in any way detract from the wine’s territoriality; on the contrary, it adds layers that make it intense and playful.
The persistence is extraordinary.
PAIRINGS: enjoy it with traditional Roman first courses such as pasta cacio e pepe, carbonara and gricia, as well as with spiced white meats and flavorful cheeses.
