More questions
The Shiraz of Casale Del Giglio is born in the volcanic lands of Lazio, where the Mediterranean climate meets marine influences, giving vigor and complexity to the grapes. This wine, obtained from pure Shiraz grape variety, stands out for its intense and enveloping character, an authentic expression of the territory.
After a controlled fermentation, the wine ages in oak barrels, which help develop fragrant aromas of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and balsamic notes, with a light touch of tobacco and dark chocolate. On the palate, it reveals itself to be full, with soft and well-integrated tannins, balanced by a vibrant freshness that invites drinking.
Perfect paired with grilled red meats, flavorful roasts, or aged cheeses, the Shiraz of Casale Del Giglio is a satisfying exploration of structure and finesse, ideal for those who love wines with a decisive but elegant character.

The story
Founded in 1967 by Dr. Berardino Santarelli. In 1985 the estate launched a research and development project, authorised by the Lazio Region, that led to experimental plantings of many varieties (e.g. Syrah, Petit Verdot, Sauvignon, Viognier, Petit Manseng) and to the development of the Agro Pontino area.
Production philosophy
“The future of Italian viticulture relies not only on consolidating the image of its traditional wine producing zones but on its ability to produce top quality wines at favourable prices in areas whose potential is still relatively unexplored.” (from the winery presentation).
Terroir and vineyards
Located in the Agro Pontino valley, between Aprilia and Latina (Le Ferriere), about 50 km south of Rome; maritime-influenced climate. The estate lists about 180 hectares of vineyards, converted to cordon training and planted with both local and international varieties.
Awards and recognition
Numerous national and international awards. Among the recent recognitions announced by the winery: a Gold Medal for the Chardonnay and a Silver Medal for the Sauvignon, as well as mentions and positive scores in guides and from specialist critics.
