Casale Mattia Az. Agricola

Casale Mattia is named after the resort of the same name Colle Mattia, a territory, among other things, full of archaeological finds. The company stands on the foundations of an ancient Roman villa, of which today you can see only a tank of water used until a few years ago by the inhabitants of the area.

The company’s project, begun in 1995, aimed at the re–evaluation of the territory through a constant search for the quality of its wines, recovering the traditional and authentic characteristics of Frascati that made it famous in the world.

The wines of Casale Mattia, rich in history and tradition, are the result of a constant commitment that starts in the vineyards, through the recovery of native grape varieties, the use of substances with low environmental impact and an accurate selection of grapes during the harvest fractionated by hand.

The wines thus obtained are then bottled with a sterile plant in cold according to the needs of the market and sold in major world markets. More than 70% of production, in effect, is sold abroad.

Quality, innovation, tradition and service to customers are therefore the main elements of the corporate policy.

Tenuta Santa Lucia

There, where the Tiber valley is dominated by Mount Soratte, green hills decorated by lush vineyards stretch.
It is in this area, where the Santa Lucina Estate extends, where a sweet wine is produced. It is the municipality of Poggio Mirteto, that has been hosting this winery since 1979. It is the Colantuono family, who strongly wanted to affirm the goodness of the Sabine wine, in Italy and beyond. The Santa Lucia Estate stretches for 45 hectares that, knowing how to cultivate knowledge and love for farming, have proved to be excellent for the production of different types of wine, a wine high quality: Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Cabernet, Alicante, Carignano, Falanghina, Sauvignon, Malvasia.

Marco Carpineti Azienda Agricola Biologica

The estate has been belonging to the same family for generations. The only one heir and current owner is Marco Carpineti, who, in 1986, driven by the desire to live in the nature, decided to move exclusively, and in first person, in the farming company owned by his family, with the aim of changing its production philosophy. In effect, he began to transform the methods of grape production and to market the wines obtained. The most significant change was undoubtedly the adoption, in 1994, of the methods of organic farming, fruit of the desire to create really healthy products. In 1997, after the three years required for the conversion, the company was recognized as Organic by the institute of control of Soil and Health with corporate code recognition IT ASS 2368 and has been working for more than 14 years in strict compliance with the Community rules on organic farming. For the care of the plants and the processing of raw materials, in effect, herbicides, chemical fertilizers and synthetic products are not used. To better respect the environment and for a more high–quality product, in most of the estate works on the soil are not carried out, but weeds are kept under control through repeated mowings. The company currently consists of approximately 52.5 acres of property, of which more or less 41 cultivated with vineyards, and 11.5 with olive groves. It is situated at an altitude ranging from 200 to 450 meters above sea level in the locality of Cape Le Mole, Casale, Pezze di Ninfa and SAN PIETRO in the town of Cori, an ancient town in Lazio dating back to the fourth century BC which is located south of Rome. The area, situated on the slopes of the Lepine mountains facing south–west, has a cool climate in summer and mild in winter, very favorable to the cultivation of vines and olive trees. The soil is of volcanic origin, is rich in structure, particularly tuff, in the lowest part, hence the name of one of the Hills: Tufaliccio, while in the highest part it has a constituent calcareous skeleton. In Capo Le Mole vineyards grow on five other hills, besides the already mentioned Tufaliccio: Collesanti, Colle Paolino, Vignale della Selva, Costa Filippani and Casa Vecchia. In Pezze di Ninfa locality there is a unique plot, lying on the side of the mountain, with a very strong slope and rich in limestone, that is currently being renovated. In San Pietro locality the vineyards stretch over volcanic soils with gentle slopes. The white grape varieties grown have always been: Bellone, Arciprete Bianco (Bellone biotype), Malvasia Puntinata, Trebbiano and two varieties of Greco grapes, known locally as Moro and Giallo, almost disappeared in the area. Those with red berries are: Nero Buono di Cori, Montepulciano, Cesanese and Sangiovese. The vines are for 30% over 25 years old, 50% about 10 years old and for the rest 5 years old, on average. The density of plants per hectare varies from 1,300, for the oldest vineyards, to 5,000, for the most recent ones.

The new winery, almost completed, appropriate to the company’s growing needs, at the moment is booming. Now, there is substantial space for processing, storage, fining and maturation of the product, as well as for the reception of guests and tastings. The inclusion in the production phase of cutting–edge technologies and new wooden barrels of different sizes are giving significant results.

The olive groves in the locality of Capo Le Mole with an extension of 9 hectares and in the locality of Casale with 2.5 hectares, are made from ancient plants of the Itrana variety. From the produced olives we get, through cold extraction, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, certified as Organic, too.

In order to obtain products that meet more and more current market trends and with respect of the land, the company employs the qualified experience of professionals in the wine industry, cultivation and marketing.

Sant'Andrea Azienda Agricola

In the mid–nineteenth century in Pantelleria, Andrea I Pandolfo, great–grandfather of the current owner Gabriele, began to plant vines and to produce wines made from Zibibbo grapes.

In 1880, Andrea I sold the small vineyards in the island and bought 60 hectares of virgin land in northern Tunisia and precisely in Khanguet Gare, in Cape Bon.


The first vines were planted, the first grapes harvested and, at the early twentieth century, Andrea I and his son Giovanni started producing quality wines in their own winery, so that from the port of Tunis ships full of their wine to serve the best markets in France left.


In 1938, Andrea II, son of Giovanni, only sixteen years old, took over the company and continued with courage and effort to grow the reputation and the quality of the wines. But a terrible disease, phylloxera, arrived in Tunisia destroying all the vineyards of the company. The dry grapes were burned and the coal produced was sold in the market of Tunis.


They were very hard years. From France, the first resistant to disease grafted cuttings arrived, and the red and desolate lands began to color again of green vine leaves and generous bunches of grapes.


On 12th May 1964, the then President of Tunisia, Harbib Bourguiba, with an ordinance entered in the history, expropriated all the assets and properties of foreigners in Tunisia. Suddenly, all the work and sacrifices of a life were canceled and the Pandolfo family had to leave the country and divide between France and Italy. Andrea II, then 42–year–old, with his wife Elena and his sons decided to come to Italy to buy a small farm, the 1720 of Via Renibbio, near Terracina, to start again to work that hated and beloved land and to collect, with the harvest of 1968, the first grapes to make wine.


The first customers, the first bottles with handwritten labels, the first chestnut barrels and the winery started to enter among the first wine realities in the Pontine area. In 1976 he Andrea II Pandolfo died and his sons, flanked by their mother Elena, decided to continue the dream that had began 150 years before.


In this way, the "Sant’Andrea" company was founded, which reminds of the name of its founder. Currently, the company is run by Gabriele Pandolfo with his wife Enza, his son Andrea III and his sister–in–law Ornella; all aided by the constant and vigilant present of mother Elena.


In recent years, the winery has been completely renewed and adapted to the most modern technologies to obtain quality wines.


Soft presses to get sweet and precious must, small steel tanks with temperature control to enhance and to better preserve the aroma of wines, small autoclaves for the production of special and peculiar sparkling wines, ultimate generation vinificators to extract from red grapes intense color and tannins, oak barrels to give the wine aromas and unique features, a modern bottling line, finally, to capture all this in a precious bottle.


However, all the efforts made in the winery are made with the specific task of assisting in the best way what nature gives us in the vineyard.
