Monastero Trappiste di Vitorchiano Lazio Bianco "Ruscum" 2021
Natural wine produced by nuns of the Cistercian Trappiste order in their breath taking walled property of 5 Ha northeast of Rome.
Like it’s lighter bodied sibling Coenobium, Ruscum is made with the same grapes from the same vineyards. However, while for former has almost no skin contact, Ruscum gets a full two weeks of maceration, resulting in a richer wine. Dark amber in colour with hints of spice, stone fruit and gunflint.
