Madreselva

The history of the Casale del Giglio winery has been linked since its origins in the early 1900s to the Santarelli family, into to the world of wine in that of Amatrice. It was Dino Santarelli in 1967 who created Casale del Giglio on an estate in Le Ferriere ad Aprilia in the province of Latina, in a virgin area for viticulture near the ancient city of Satricum. In the 90s, thanks to the innovative vision of his son Antonio, in the wake of his paternal intuition, together with the young Trentino winemaker Paolo Tiefenthaler, he started a forward-looking research and experimentation project on about 60 vines, which brought Casale del Giglio first to the conquest of the local regional market up to a vast national and international development. Today it counts bottles with numerous awards that testify to the incredible creative and entrepreneurial momentum of two visionaries.

Madreselva is produced with the same proportion of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot grapes, harvested in different periods, in mid-September the first variety, further ahead the others, with different red winemaking procedures. After fermentation the wines rest for 18/20 months in oak barrels, and once assembled they refine in the bottle for 8-12 months. An ideal full-bodied red with dishes with strong flavors such as the typical roman dish "coda alla vaccinara".
