About the wine

The Civitella d'Agliano IGT, established in 1995, covers the administrative territory of Civitella d'Agliano in the province of Viterbo, Lazio. The area is characterized by volcanic soils and a hilly landscape in the upper Tiber Valley, with vineyards situated between 72 and 365 meters above sea level. The climate is temperate, providing a favorable environment for viticulture that dates back to the Etruscan era. The IGT allows for a wide range of wine styles, including white, red, and rosato, with options for frizzante and novello versions. Production is governed by traditional techniques, emphasizing the expression of specific varietals when labeled as such. The disciplinare mandates that wines must be produced from grapes authorized for the Lazio region, ensuring a balance between historical viticultural practices and modern quality standards.
