; From Frascati, before arriving at column, go down to the left, skirting a hill full of vineyards and you reach the long path that takes us inside this company. Treated vines are pruned properly and ready for a new season. The main building, where you can buy wine, built on the foundations of the villa of Caligula. The Papi family, owners of the estate, has been here for over a century, but the bottling of wines only began in 1989 . For about 3 years Elio Papi to drive the company.
the grapes are grown almost exclusively historical area, in particular Puntinata Malvasia, Trebbiano Green and Yellow, Bellone, Bomvino, Cesanese , Montepulciano. In addition there are Syrah and Grechetto .
Among the wines produced there are the 'Orchid , tasting today, 100% Malvasia Puntinata harvested slightly later, the superior virtue Montecompatri Roman , a blend of traditional grapes of the area of \u200b\u200bFrascati, the Canestraro , 100% Grechetto, The Trecciola , Montecompatri the base, the red Nasyr , 100% Syrah and Rasa Marmorata , a blend of Montepulciano, and Merlot Cesanese. At this moment I can not say with certainty whether the product is still sweet white Dulcis Vitis . I inform you soon.
The prices are very low, from 5 to € 7.5 for whites and up to 9 € for Nasyr. This
Orchid comes from a single vineyard Malvasia Puntinata , vinification and aging entirely steel market around May.
It shows a rather intense straw yellow with golden hues. Consistency discreet but just right for the type. A bell'olfatto: fruity, peach, apricot, banana, citrus, passion fruit, great feeling of herbs, sage, rosemary, almonds that can not be more typical, a strong mineral component that turns into the briny. Of very good stuff.
The mouth is very pleasant, enveloping, almost creamy but with a nice acidity and great flavor. Only after a few seconds after swallowing a bitter taste comes out more than pleasant. And of course the memory does not disappear easily. A white all over, which has as one of the leaders in the area and it deserves all our encouragement for the next harvest. It is curious to taste the 2008. I wonder if the company is still for sale.

Grapes: Pecorino
PECORINO
white grapes probably native to the Marche but widespread in the north of 'Abruzzo and Lazio and, less conspicuously, in Umbria, Tuscany, Puglia and Liguria. It owes its name to the particular characteristic that makes early maturing sweet and juicy already in early September, a period that coincides with the transhumance of sheep that he ate along the trail called tratturi . It was then that Pecurì or Vino de them pecuri by shepherds, hence the name. So nothing to do with the smell of Pecorino cheese! In the countryside of the Marches was brought up in trees. Despite a fairly constant
productivity and a long history (as quoted in Bulletin ampelographic already in 1875), its cultivation had been almost entirely abandoned in favor of more productive varieties. Its discovery and the subsequent return in production are due to two key characters: Theodore Bugari , co-founder of 'Ais encoder and national association of educational methodology, and Guido Cocci Grifoni , producer Marche. Master Sommelier, tasted a Pecurì glass of wine from grapes from local farmers, along with a piece of cheese the same name, described this wine Guido Cocci Grifoni that in the early '80s he found some branches and gave birth to the first vineyards that produced wine for cheese in purity in 1990.
Currently its distribution is mainly concentrated in the provinces of Ascoli Piceno and Macerata in the Marche and those Teramo and Pescara in Abruzzo. Up to the 50-60 was also widespread in the area of \u200b\u200bCastelli Romani near Rome, where it was grown in a particular type Pecorino quail egg, the lower yield. Some manufacturers place indeed, argue that here is its origin.
There are many synonyms: Pecorino, Pecorino di Osimo, mussels, Forconese, butchers, Vissanello (the country of Visso ) Uvino, Vecio, Promotio, Luvin, Dolcipappola.
ampelographic Features: spray of bright yellow, short. Leaves of medium size, fringed, slightly lobed. Bunch medium, almost sparse, sometimes winged, cylindrical. Berry small, round, yellow with greenish hues (though there are also varieties with berries oval or flattened). Thin skin, very firm and waxy.
E 'marked by production constant but with low yields per hectare. It prefers cool climates and good elevations. Maturation takes place in early September.
It usually gets a wine with good acidity and minerality and high sugar content, straw-colored rather intense. William characteristic aromas of pear, apple, jasmine and broom. Characteristic bitter end. Certainly not hesitate, in his best performances, to stay a few years in the bottle for better aging. It 's a variety of recent discovery, therefore, as is normal, if you can find versions of very simple and drinkable as well as other high ambitions.
It goes well with fish soup, humpbacks in Parma typical of the Marche and Umbria, shellfish, swordfish with seasonings structured.

So there is something for everyone.
This Dithyrambus is the company's flagship red. It comes from the oldest vines and planting density and higher is a good blend of Montepulciano and Nero (60-40%). 2 years ago in wood barrels and other dimensions of age for the first few months in bottle.
It has a dense ruby \u200b\u200bred with slight purple, almost impenetrable and great consistency. It sticks to glass slides and fat and rich. Nose initially very woody, vanilla, chocolate, toast, butter. Then gradually opens up and come out the typical fruity notes of black cherry, black cherry, plum, forest floor. Then sweet spice and a certain ethereal note. The mouth is
perfectly to the expectations, with a soft and warm, yet elegant tannin. Good persistence. Perhaps lack some component that takes the balance further. Excellent, still a small step and it deserved 4 stars .

Malvasia delle Lipari Florio Cellars 2009-
Grapes: Malvasia delle Lipari, Black Corinth
March 2011
Price: 30-35 €
not need to be introduced this wine. Cantina of the most important and famous of Italy, past which one would like to drink at the mere sight. Is the regret of never having been one of those beautiful islands, with only the sun and the sounds of the sea around. And hope to fill this gap soon. The ideal wine for every occasion, to meditate in silence, to take heart from the many daily efforts to make family party to celebrate, to enjoy some goodies in peace.
Yellow copper, caramel, with great consistency and more transparent nail.
In the mouth quite a flood of aromas. Dried apricot, bean seeds, raisins, prickly pear, cane sugar, caramel, candied orange peel, peach, pastiera Neapolitan, a bit of marine notes.
Overall, however, a little too hot, it gives the idea of \u200b\u200bbeing a little cooked.
The mouth is very sweet, soft, warm, very persistent. A nice flavor balances part of the factors involved. Perhaps it would have been appreciated a little more pronounced acidity. Returning in the final feeling of apricot, bean, sugar, candied orange.
pleasant wine to be enjoyed without too many issues. Very good.
