The wine

Description and technical sheet

Terre dei Grifi expresses the easy-going, food-friendly side of Frascati: a fresh, dry white wine made for everyday meals. Fontana Candida produces it in the volcanic hills of the Castelli Romani, just southeast of Rome, where the Frascati DOC appellation has deep roots. This 2025 vintage in a 375 ml half-bottle offers the same regional identity in a smaller format, well suited to a meal for two or an occasion that does not call for a full bottle.

Traditional grapes from the Frascati hills

The blend brings together Malvasia Bianca di Candia, Trebbiano Toscano and Malvasia del Lazio, varieties closely associated with the winegrowing hills surrounding Rome. The grapes come from the Frascati DOC area, including Frascati, Monte Porzio Catone, Grottaferrata and neighbouring districts. The area's volcanic landscape is an important part of the wine's fresh, distinctive style.

Winemaking that protects freshness

After reaching the cellar, the grapes are cooled and undergo approximately 12 hours of low-temperature skin contact before gentle pressing. The free-run must is cold-settled and fermented under temperature control. The wine then rests briefly on its lees at a low temperature before blending and ageing in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks until bottling. This approach is designed to retain clear aromas and an appealingly direct palate.

Tasting notes and food pairings

Pale straw yellow in colour, it offers aromas of meadow flowers, ripe pear and a delicate almond note. The palate is fresh, supple and well balanced, with a pleasant savoury edge. It pairs naturally with aperitifs, starters, light pasta dishes, fish, vegetables and white meats.

Serve at 8–10°C in a white-wine glass. The 375 ml half-bottle is particularly practical when a full bottle would be more than needed, while keeping the authentic character of Frascati at the centre of the experience.
