The Principe Pallavicini winery is built over a Roman cistern and aqueduct, while Roman artefacts and remains can be regularly found everywhere on the estate.
Within this historically rich context, modern techniques are used to produce clean and vibrant wines, highlighting the character of their indigenous varieties. The ‘Frascati’ blends Malvasia di Candia and Malvasia del Lazio (aka Malvasia Puntinata) with varieties such as Trebbiano and Greco. After crushing and gentle pressing, a classic white wine vinification ensures the delicate floral profile is perfectly preserved in the wine. It's the first Frascati we have sold in at least 10, probably more like 15 years and very tasty it is too. The nose has very delicate aromas of citrus fruit and blossom. On the palate, it is dry with refreshing acidity, clean zesty and tangy.
