ROCCA DI FRASSINELLO AT 54TH VINITALY WITH TWO NEW TOP WINES: ROCCA DI FRASSINELLO BIANCO AND ROCCA DI FRASSINELLO SAN GERMANO

Rocca di Frassinello San Germano comes from the best Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and in a small part Sangioveto grapes that grow near the Etruscan Necropolis of San Germano, one of the most important archaeological sites of the ancient city of Vetulonia (among the 12 capitals of the Etruscan League). Eight monumental tombs have been recovered and restored by returning some objects of the grave goods, such as fine painted ceramic and bucchero vases, goblets and cups for the wine consumption. All findings that testify how on these hills the cultivation of vines dates back to 3,000 years ago. A millenary history that has allowed the plants to self-select, naturally developing their defenses against climatic and biological adversities and thus obtaining healthier grapes of excellent quality.
