WINE DESCRIPTION
Sergio Mottura Poggio della Costa is a distinguished wine from the Lazio region, specifically the Tuscia area near Civitella d’Agliano. This 100% Grechetto wine is cultivated in a unique vineyard spanning 7 hectares, with vines planted in 1970 on volcanic soil enriched by the Tevere River’s alluvial deposits. The vineyard, located at an altitude of 140 meters and facing east, benefits from the optimal sun exposure and terroir. Hand-harvested and carefully selected in early September, the grapes undergo gentle pressing and static decantation before fermenting in stainless steel tanks. The wine ages for nine months on fine lees in steel, followed by eight months in the bottle. Sergio Mottura Poggio della Costa boasts a refined profile, offering a crisp, well-balanced palate with notes of fresh fruit, making it an elegant expression of the Grechetto varietal and the unique Lazio terroir.
