Descrizione

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.

Winery history

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.

Production philosophy

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.

Terroir and vineyards

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.

Awards and recognitions

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.
