THE CHARM OF A STROLL, IMMERSED IN THE VINEYARDS AND THE LANDSCAPE OVERLOOKING ROME.
WE WILL TELL YOU THE STORY OF THE ESTATE UNTIL ARRIVING AT THE SHELTER CARVED INTO THE VOLCANIC ROCK.
HERE WE WILL TASTE THE FIRST OF THE WINES IN THE TASTING, ACCOMPANIED BY OUR EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL.
THE STROLL CONTINUES TO THE ANCIENT SPRING WHERE WE CAN APPRECIATE WHAT REMAINS OF LAKE REGILLO.
A UNIQUE PLACE THAT SUMMARIZES THE VOLCANIC ORIGIN OF THESE LANDS.
YOU WILL ALWAYS RETURN ON FOOT TO THE WINE-MAKING, BOTTLING, AND STORAGE FACILITIES.
DURING THE STROLL, THE PRODUCTION AND WINE-MAKING PROCESS WILL BE EXPLAINED TO YOU.
THE WINE CELLAR TASTING INCLUDES THE TASTING OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF WINE:
- FRASCATI SUPERIORE D.O.C.G. GOLD LABEL
- IGT LAZIO ROSSO LECINARO
- CANNELLINO DI FRASCATI D.O.C.G.
THE TASTING WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY OUR HOUSE-MADE WINE DONUTS
THE VISIT THEN CONCLUDES WITH A TOUR OF THE OLD WINE CELLAR, WHERE YOU CAN ADMIRE THE ESTATE'S OLD GROTTOS, AND FINALLY WITH AN EXPLANATION OF THE OLIVE OIL EXTRACTION PROCESS DIRECTLY AT THE PRIVATE OIL MILL.
The Winery’s Story
Tenuta di Pietra Porzia’s history is closely connected first with the Roman Empire and later with the Papal States and their extensive properties in the Agro Romano. For millennia, Frascati was a sought-after retreat for the aristocracy because of its breezy climate and freedom from the malaria that made city life particularly dangerous in summer. The Frascati hills were divided among grand villas, some of which still survive. The Roman villa at Tenuta di Pietra Porzia was built on a high platform to avoid disturbing the remains of an earlier villa, which are still present.
