Civitella d'Agliano Grechetto IGT 'Latour a Civitella' 2020 (750 ml.) Sergio Mottura
'Latour a Civitella' by Sergio Mottura is a pure Grechetto to which the best grapes from the five vineyards of Grechetto clone Poggio della Costa contribute, and it is fermented in French oak barriques. Of an intense golden yellow, it has an elegant and complex olfactory impact, with hints of white fruit, citrus fruits, melted butter and hazelnut. A decidedly full-bodied wine, soft and pleasantly fresh with a persistent finish of fruit and vanilla. To be combined with savory dishes with strong flavors: perfect with onion soup, Tuscan ribollita, Livorno-style cod, roast goose, chicken and rabbit with peppers or with strongly spiced dishes such as all curries or, again, gazpacho.

THE COMPANY
One hundred and thirty hectares, of which 36 are vineyards, spread among the clayey hills of Civitella d'Agliano and the Umbrian plain washed by the Tiber. We are located in the province of Viterbo, in an area dedicated to viticulture since 1292, as shown by some historical archival documents. The Mottura estate belongs to the family of the same name since 1933, and has been managed by Sergio Mottura since the 1960s, under whose guidance the company has undergone important renewal phases, both as regards the new replanting, and as regards the cellar activity. Following the rules of organic farming, the strenuous pursuit of the maximum ecological balance is one of the company's beliefs, and even in the winery the vinifications exclude any chemical intervention, are the most natural possible. Revaluing the native vines and carrying out practical experiments on the field, those of Sergio Mottura are rich, inebriating, persistent, vigorous and enveloping wines. Unique and excellent labels, starting from "Latour a Civitella", the first ever white wine from Lazio which has been awarded the recognition of the 3 glasses by the Gambero Rosso guide on the "Wines of Italy".
