Lazio

The essence of Lazio Surrounding the Eternal City, Lazio is an ancient wine region where the Tyrrhenian Sea meets volcanic hills. Its red wines balance Mediterranean warmth with freshness and finesse – expressive, authentic and full of character. Terroir – volcanic energy and Mediterranean balance The volcanic soils of the Colli Albani and Lepini hills bring minerality and tension, while the mild climate ensures ripeness and balance. Montepulciano, Cesanese and Nero Buono dominate, producing wines of ripe red fruit, herbs and lively acidity. Marco Carpineti – biodynamic pioneer of Lazio At Vinifera Fine Wines, Marco Carpineti embodies the soul of modern Lazio. Located in Cori, south of Rome, his estate is fully biodynamic and dedicated to indigenous grapes. His reds, crafted mainly from Nero Buono di Cori, offer depth and refinement – ripe fruit, subtle spice, earthy minerality and a long, balanced finish. Honest, elegant and unmistakably Italian. Food Pairing – refined simplicity Red Lazio wines shine with Mediterranean dishes: Nero Buono & Cesanese: with tomato-based pasta, roasted chicken or lamb. Montepulciano blends: with stews, grilled vegetables or eggplant dishes. Mature Carpineti wines: with game, mushrooms or Pecorino cheese. Elegant, fresh and characterful – wines that express the volcanic heart of Italy.
