Castelli Romani 1960 white

Manlio Mergé began his winemaking career in the Frascati area bordering Monte Porzio Catone, but it was with the arrival of his children, Massimiliano, Marco, Maria-Beatrice, and Marianna, that the winery became a key player in Frascati viticulture, committed to pursuing production that respects and embraces the culture of its terroir.

From the volcanic hills of the Castelli Romani, a land of ancient traditions and authentic flavors, Casata Mergè's Castelli Romani 1960 white wine is born. This wine is more than just a beverage, but a tribute to the history and identity of a region that has always nourished Rome and its inhabitants with its generous fruits. The Mergè family, with decades of experience and an unwavering dedication to viticulture, masterfully interprets the distinctive character of this historic blend, passing down their passion for the land and their expertise in winemaking from generation to generation. The "1960" in its name evokes an era of authenticity and tradition, a nod to the values that still guide Casata Mergè in creating wines that express the true spirit of the Castelli Romani. This wine is the result of meticulous winemaking that respects Lazio's native grapes, enhancing their characteristics and offering a tasting experience reminiscent of sun, volcanoes, and conviviality. Perfect for those who wish to savor a piece of Lazio's winemaking history, the Castelli Romani 1960 is an invitation to rediscover the authentic flavors and simplicity of times gone by.

The Castelli Romani 1960 Bianco from Casata Mergè presents itself with a pale, brilliant straw yellow color, often with greenish highlights that emphasize its youth and freshness. On the nose, its organoleptic characteristics reveal a delicate and fragrant aromatic bouquet. Floral notes are predominantly perceived, reminiscent of hawthorn and wildflowers, combined with fresh fruity aromas of green apple and pear. A light mineral note and a pleasant vegetal nuance complete the bouquet, giving the wine a refined complexity and a distinct character. On the palate, it is light, fresh, and dry, characterized by a lively acidity that enhances its drinkability and makes it extremely pleasant. The structure is lean and the finish is good, with a clean aftertaste and a finish that repeats the fruity and mineral notes perceived on the nose. It is a wine that invites another sip, thanks to its immediacy and great drinkability. Thanks to its lightness, freshness, and its distinctive aromatic profile, the Castelli Romani 1960 Bianco is extremely versatile in food pairings. It's the quintessential table wine of Roman cuisine, ideal for pairing with light appetizers, traditional first courses like pasta all'amatriciana (in its plain version or with a light sauce), carbonara (though with caution), and pasta dishes with simple or vegetable sauces in general. It pairs wonderfully with fried foods, especially vegetables or small fish, and with main courses featuring fresh fish, shellfish, and crustaceans. It's also perfect with rich salads, pizzas, and fresh or short-aged cheeses, making it the ideal choice for a light lunch or a convivial aperitif.
