Agricola Le Rose

The Castelli Romani (or “Roman Castles”) are a group of villages spread south-east of Rome in an ancient volcanic area (the two local lakes, Nemi and Albano, are actually two craters).
Starting from the ancient Roman era, it was an area frequented by the noblemen of Rome for its fresher climate during summer: the tradition was followed by the Popes which still have their summer residence in Castel Gandolfo, on the Lake Albano.
The volcanic soil, the southern sea breeze and the shelter provided by the Apennines mountains had created an outstanding wine-producing area with a millennial tradition.
