The Cistercian order of nuns at Monastero Suore Cistercensi, near Vitorchiano in Lazio, planted their vineyard in 1963, but it wasn’t until the early 2000s that their wines began to attract attention, largely due to their employment of the noted winemaking consultant, Giampiero Bea. Made from a blend of Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Verdicchio, this is an “orange” wine, with the pressed juice given extended skin contact so that the fermenting grape juice takes on a slightly tannic and dry, delicious, cider-like quality. He wine is stylish and rustic, citric and earthy all at once.
