Straw yellow with golden hues. Buttery, floral, tropical fruit, pepper and herbal notes. Consistent, acidic and savory.

The Grechetto "Latour a Civitella" produced on the border between Lazio and Umbria owes its name to a friendship with L. Fabrice Latour, a producer from Burgundy, who suggested that Sergio Mottura ferment his wine in oak barrels. The porcupine, an animal that lives in healthy and ecological habitats, is the winery's symbol and well represents the producer's respect for the environment.

Il Grechetto "Latour a Civitella" prodotto al confine tra Lazio ed Umbria deve il nome all’amicizia con L. Fabrice Latour, produttore della Borgogna, che suggerì a Sergio Mottura di far fermentare il suo vino in fusti di rovere. L'istrice, animale che vive in habitat sani ed ecologici, è il simbolo della cantina e ben rappresenta il rispetto che il produttore ha per l'ambiente.

Golden yellow with amber highlights. Candied citrus, flowers, fruit. Savory, fresh, honeyed and buttery notes.

"Muffo" is produced from grapes from the "Umbrico" and "Mecone" vineyards. Due to their low position, during autumn they are enveloped by mists from Lake Alviano that allow noble molds to develop on the grapes.
