The wines of the Castelli Romani are produced in the hilly territory southeast of Roma, an area historically known for viticulture since ancient times. Both white and red wines are made here, reflecting the terroir and native grape varieties of the region. Among them, Frascati DOC is the most representative: a white wine that can be dry, slightly sweet, or sparkling, produced mainly from Malvasia Bianca di Candia and/or Malvasia del Lazio grapes with varieties such as Trebbiano. Alongside Frascati, the area also produces reds and rosés under the Castelli Romani DOC designation, territorial interpretations of grapes such as Sangiovese, Merlot, Cesanese, and others.
