Pileum Cesanese del Piglio 2022
$26.00Add to cartOld vines Cesanese is capable of producing some impressive, juicy reds. Red fruit with notes of black pepper, spice & leather. Bright! Bright! Bright! A noble wine, crafted a stone’s throw from Rome. Traditionally served with cured local pork loin, but prosciutto will do the trick.

Suore Cistercensi Benedic Lazio Rosso 2023
$36.00Add to cartOrganic wine is one thing, but organic wine made with very minimal intervention by nuns? It’s enough to cause a sensation. Ninety minutes north of Rome, 80 Cistercian nuns farm ten acres of vines entirely organically. With some consultation from the Bea family, the nuns have turned out some wines that are just like they are. The spartan landscape (and cellar) are energetic and full of warm spirit.
