Vineyard of Francesca Cardone Donati

Cantina Cardone aims to make organic wine that expresses the hills of the Castelli Romani in a direct, wholesome and approachable way. Francesca Cardone and her family emphasise biodiversity, manual work and estate-grown grapes. Low intervention and limited sulphite use support the goal of offering pure wines that retain a recognisable local origin.

The present Cantina Cardone was previously known as Azienda Vitivinicola Francesca Cardone Donati and was one of Lazio's early certified-organic wineries. The business covers approximately five hectares in the Frascati DOC and Roma DOC areas. The family operates from Colonna, harvests by hand and is inspected by ICEA for organic production.

Labicum Bianco DOC Roma from Francesca Cardone Donati is a dry white wine with 13,5% alcohol. No specific vintage is recorded for this listing. The wine is made from Malvasia del Lazio. The selected grapes and style suggest citrus, white fruit, floral nuances and a dry, fresh finish. This gives it a recognisable, accessible style that is suitable for fish, shellfish, salads, vegetables and light pasta dishes. Do not serve too warm; if the wine is powerful or mature, let it breathe briefly for a more open flavour profile.
