Roscetto: the hidden treasure of Lazio
In the heart of Lazio, a cradle of millennia-old traditions and breathtaking landscapes, Roscetto emerges as a true enological gem, bringing with it the essence of the region's hills and vineyards. This white wine, named after its namesake indigenous grape variety, represents one of the most authentic and lesser-known expressions of central Italy, a true hidden treasure for wine lovers in search of new discoveries.
Roscetto owes its name to the reddish color that its berries take on during ripening, a detail that hints at its complexity and richness. Mainly cultivated in the areas of Montefiascone and around Lake Bolsena, this grape benefits from the mild climate and volcanic soil of the region, which give the wines a distinctive character and unique minerality.
The vinification of Roscetto is carried out with particular attention to maintaining freshness and aromatic purity. After manual harvesting, the grapes undergo gentle pressing and controlled fermentation at low temperatures. The result is a medium-bodied wine, distinguished by its liveliness and balance between acidity and structure.
From an organoleptic point of view, Roscetto presents a straw-yellow color with golden reflections. On the nose, it releases a complex and intriguing aromatic bouquet, with hints of white flowers, yellow-fleshed fruits like peach and apricot, and delicate mineral notes that evoke the volcanic territory of origin. On the palate, Roscetto is fresh and savory, with a pleasant persistence and refined elegance that make it a versatile wine, perfect for accompanying fish dishes, white meats, and fresh cheeses.
