Winery Casale del Giglio

The estate is tied to the Santarelli family, whose entrepreneurial roots go back to the original family firm. The Casale del Giglio winery was founded as an independent entity in the Le Ferriere area and has, over the decades, established a program of varietal research and experimentation involving dozens of grape varieties. In recent decades the company has recovered and relaunched local varieties and has complemented its winemaking with cultural and archaeological initiatives linked to the local area.

The winery adopts an applied research approach, prioritizing quality in areas not yet fully valued, with attention to agronomic sustainability and the rediscovery of indigenous grape varieties, combined with modern production and commercial management.

The vineyards are located in the Tyrrhenian hinterland of the Agro Pontino, at the foot of the Monti Lepini and under the moderating influence of sea breezes. The estate also manages small terraced vineyards on Ponza for the production of Biancolella. The area is characterised by mild climates, maritime breezes and soils that favour both international varieties and local indigenous varieties.

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.
