“Franc[o] is a shop wine, and it’s completely different. Letizia and I chose to purchase and vinify a grape that we love and with which we had not yet had experience, Cabernet Franc. To this we have added some territorial information: a balance of Cesanese from a splendid vineyard in Olevano Romano and we sincerely thank the gentleman for having given us the grapes from his latest harvest. We hope to have honored them fully. Franc[o] is – therefore – a sincere wine: it tells a true story and the unpredictability of the agricultural world. Franc[o] is a tribute to a person, to a variety, to our way of being frank. And if I can be Franc[o], there is nothing wrong with doing things well.” Cit. Damiano Ciolli. It is the result of 4 days of maceration in cement and spontaneous, alcoholic and malolactic fermentations. The refinement it lasts 8 months – always in concrete – and finally in the bottle for a few months.

Olevano Romano, Lazio
The Ciolli family has been producing wine for 5 generations, they do it in Olevano Romano, a few km east of Rome, in a hilly area with volcanic soil.
Ciolli has the merit of having brought a talented but sometimes unexpressed grape variety, the Cesanese, to truly high quality levels, through a natural and minimally interventionist approach in the vineyard and in the cellar.
The focus is entirely on safeguarding the aromatic characteristics of Cesanese and enhancing them!
