Estate History: As a child the fields of the family estate, Casale del Giglio, were nothing more to Antonio Santarelli than a place where he could spend carefree; but all that changed when he joined his father Dino in the family business. By then, a shrewd twenty-five-year-old, he knew instinctively that their unconventional land in the Agro Pontino valley, some 30 miles south of Rome, offered a unique opportunity to have free rein and experiment with the planting of close to 60 different experimental vines.
Tasting Notes: A deep, dense, ruby-red wine which displays outstanding personality both on the nose and on the palate with its aroma of coffee beans, violets, ripe black cherry, coriander, nutmeg and cinnamon. Silky and seductive, but perfectly supported by fine tannins and a pleasing astringency, Mater Matuta delivers a long, lush finish.
