The Cesanese Matidia di Casale del Giglio is obtained from 100% Cesanese grapes grown in the area of Olevano Romano, in the province of Rome. The vineyards, located to the East, are situated on limestone-volcanic soils, at an altitude of about 500 meters above sea level. The red vinification included a pre-fermentative maceration at a temperature of 8°C for 6-7 days to facilitate the extraction of primary aromas. Alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature and was accompanied by a maceration of the must on the skins for about 3 weeks. The aging process lasted approximately 12 months in tonneaux and stainless steel.
