Certified organicTasting note
Straw yellow color and a scent that evokes fruity hints of pineapple and citrus peel, along with subtle notes of Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, it is fresh and pulpy, with a pleasantly mineral character and a satisfying saline persistence.

Tenimenti Leone
Lazio, Lazio38 ha of vineyardtenimentileone.com
Tenimenti Leone sits at Lanuvio in the Colli Albani south of Rome, a 72-hectare estate of vines and olives around the medieval Torre di Presciano on volcanic soils. The estate farms organically under certification and works native grapes such as Bellone, Malvasia Puntinata and Cesanese. In 2024-25 the range was relaunched as Vulc Num, Aspis, Caliga and Anchoram; the earlier Core / De Coccio / Tera de Leone labels are no longer on the producer's site.
