Roccantica With your hands

Organic estate tour with oil or natural wine tasting

Roccantica

Roccantica is stacked against the Sabine hills in stone, and the estate lies below it among olives and vines. Maria Teresa pours what the farm made and tells you which slope it came off.

How the day goes

  1. A look round the organic estate first, so the tasting has a field behind it.
  2. Then the choice the table is built around: the farm's extra virgin oil, or its natural wines.
  3. An antipasto of local cheeses, cured meats and the farm's organic frittata alongside.

Where it is
