This Caspide Roma DOC Bianco takes you on a culinary journey to beautiful Rome in Lazio, Italy. An area that attracts a huge number of tourists every year, but not necessarily to drink the local wines. Wine is actually produced around the capital of Italy as well, but this is not yet very well known in the Netherlands. Unjustly so, if you ask us, because this Roma DOC Bianco is a real gem. Made from the Malvasia Puntinata grape; a variant of the Malvasia Bianco. The result is a soft, fresh wine with mineral notes and predominant floral and fruity aromas. A perfect wine to drink as an aperitif or with light fish starters. This wine also pairs well with an authentic spaghetti carbonara.
Malvasia Puntinata is a variant of Malvasia Bianco. This Puntinata is considerably more difficult to cultivate because it is more susceptible to diseases and weather conditions. Nevertheless, when ripened properly, the Malvasia Puntinata grape produces a much finer product than the ‘ordinary’ Malvasia Bianco. The terroir of the vineyards features soil of volcanic origin with a clay subsoil. The volcanic soil imparts beautiful minerality to the wine and makes the soil exceptionally fertile. The clay retains sufficient water during dry periods, allowing the grapes to continue growing undisturbed.
From the beginning of October, the grapes have reached optimal ripeness and it is time for the harvest. All grapes are picked by hand. After the harvest, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. The wine ferments in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature. After fermentation, the wine ages on the lees before being bottled. This gives the wine its beautiful, soft roundness.
The Caspide Roma DOC Bianco is bright straw-yellow in the glass with golden reflections. Aromas of blossom and fruit such as apple, lychee, and pear burst from the glass. On the palate, the wine offers a fine, soft taste with a beautiful roundness. Refreshing notes with pleasant minerality. An excellent pairing with light starters, summer fish dishes, or spaghetti carbonara. Also very suitable as an aperitif or a wine to enjoy with snacks.
