Principe Pallavicini, Frascati Single Bottle
Country: Italy Region: Lazio
Varietal: Malvasia, Trebbiano & Greco
Vintage: 2022 Colour: White Style: Dry
Producer: Principe Pallavicini
Description:
Lazio is a region in central Italy, and home to the ancient capital city of Rome. The region’s reputation is mainly based on its white wines, the mainstay grape varieties being Trebbiano, Malvasia di Candia and Malvasia Puntinata. Frascati takes its name from the town of Frascati, located 25 km southeast of Rome, in Lazio, Italy. Archeological discoveries from the ancient town of Tusculum, now Frascati, demonstrate the cultivation of grapes for wine since the 5th century BC. Frascati was one of the preferred wines of Ancient Rome, of Renaissance Popes, of poets and artists visiting in the Grand Tour (1700s and 1800s), and of the La Dolce Vita generation in the 1960s.
The history of the Pallavicini family, which has owned land in the Lazio for hundreds of years, is entwined with that of popes, cardinals, generals and princes.
Ageing Potential: Drink Fresh
Tasting Note:
Distinctive and delicate flavour profile of white peaches and blanched almonds, and an outdoorsy scent of wildflowers and hay. So next time you go to grab a bottle of pinot grigio, consider this delightful bargain instead to get a taste of Rome.
