Description :
"Capoccia" is someone who poses as a boss, humorously referring to a famous song by a Roman singer-songwriter, referring to the past glory that still permeates the streets and souls of the Romans.
Vinification: All white grapes used in the DOC Roma Bianco Capoccia blend (Malvasia, Bellone, Verdicchio or green Trebbiano and other varieties) are harvested by hand in crates at optimal maturity and vinified individually. After a pre-fermentation cold maceration for approximately 48 hours, the grapes are pressed and only the flower must obtained is fermented with selected yeasts in stainless steel for approximately 15 days at a temperature of 16 - 17 °C. Aging takes place in stainless steel on the lees for about three months and a small portion is refined in French oak barriques. The blended wines are then prepared for bottling. A brief period of refinement in bottle for about three months follows before release.Grape varieties :
