Bellone i.g.t.
The Bellone grape variety has good vigor and withstands dry periods well, ensuring quality and balance. The bunch is conical-cylindrical in shape with spherical berries that have a very thick skin of golden yellow color. The constant sea breeze helps achieve full ripeness, where excellent sugar concentration and high acidity enhance the strong minerality. Harvest takes place at the end of September. Vinification occurs in two phases: maceration on the skins to favor the extraction of aromas, which thus reflect the pedoclimatic characteristics of the Anzio territory. After gentle pressing, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts follows, lasting about 10/12 days at a temperature of 18/20° C. Intense yellow color with golden reflections. A sunny wine with aromas of well-ripened exotic fruit, such as mango and papaya, contrasted by a consistent acidity that makes this wine suitable for long aging in the bottle. On the palate, it is very broad, rich, and persistent, with light floral and spicy nuances. It stands out for its pronounced sapidity and minerality. Very long and persistent aftertaste.

Bellone 100% with aging in amphora I.G.T.
GRAPE VARIETY AND VINIFICATION
Bellone 100%.
Maceration occurs at room temperature (18°-20°C), in tonneaux (400-liter barrels)
placed upright and open at the top, in order to achieve a strong extraction from the skins. The
alcoholic fermentation in contact with the skins at room temperature lasts about two days,
after which soft pressing takes place.
Thanks to indigenous yeasts, the alcoholic fermentation lasts about two weeks in
tonneaux, where the Bellone remains in contact with the noble lees for about two years, without
malolactic fermentation.
At the end of this period, a passage in "Amphora" is planned where the Bellone can "breathe"
recovering, very slowly, small portions of oxygen, which will restore a perfect balance.
After being clarified from the yeast, it is bottled, where it ages for at least six
months.
ORGANOLEPTIC ANALYSIS
Deep straw yellow color, bright, tending towards golden. The nose is intense and persistent, with
notes of yellow flowers and Mediterranean aromas, peach and exotic fruits. On the palate, it is full, centered and
persistent, thanks to good sapidity and pronounced minerality; menthol and resinous hints are perceived
due to the evolution of tannin.
It is a complex wine but at the same time of excellent drinkability, destined for great longevity.

Blend of Viognier and Chardonnay (two thirds - one third)
Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes undergo soft pressing followed by a natural
clarification of the must at a temperature of 12-13° C. to avoid impoverishing the
structure.
When the must reaches a temperature of about 18° C., it is placed, separating the varieties,
in "tonneaux" (500-liter barrels mostly made of acacia).
A small fraction of Chardonnay is placed in un-toasted oak "barriques".
In the barrel, both alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation take place.
During this period from mid-September to the end of March, periodic
"bâtonnage" (stirring of the noble lees deposited at the bottom) occurs.
This is followed by a bottle aging period of 6-12 months.
ORGANOLEPTIC ANALYSIS
Yellow color with golden reflections; on the nose it is elegant, complex, with a dominance of yellow flowers, acacia, and broom.
On the palate, it stands out for its very persistent saline and mineral trace that softens in the finish.

white wine from Cori made from organically grown grapes d.o.c.
“Capolemole” by Marco Carpineti is a white wine from the countryside of Cori, in the province of Latina. In these areas, at the foot of the Lepini Mountains, viticulture has developed for hundreds of years, benefiting from favorable environmental conditions. Marco Carpineti is currently one of the most fervent supporters of native grape varieties that had almost disappeared in the Lazio territory. And Bellone is perhaps the most important and widespread white grape in the region. In the winery, principles are followed that do not violate or disturb the ecosystem, according to the practice of organic certification.
Marco Carpineti “Capolemole” is a white wine made from Bellone grapes. The vineyards are located between 250 and 350 meters above sea level, on volcanic soils with permeable and well-structured terrain. Here, the temperature variations are quite significant, making the pedo-climatic environment very favorable for the vines. The methods for fertilizing include manure, biodynamic preparations, and green manure. Harvesting takes place in September, the whole grapes undergo a soft pressing, while fermentation occurs in steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Aging also takes place in steel for several months, in cellar spaces that, year after year, welcome modern technologies.
“Capolemole” Bianco by Marco Carpineti shines in the glass with its bright straw yellow color. The nose reveals reassuring recognizable scents: white flowers, refreshing fresh fruit, and citrus with exotic notes adding an extra touch. On the palate, it is very fresh, with a good overall balance, easy and lively to drink. Its sapidity and minerality make this white wine an excellent companion for summer evenings, refreshing and versatile in the kitchen. A wine without excesses, which makes tranquility and simplicity its strong points: it feels like hearing the slow but joyful steps of pilgrims on the ancient road that still today flanks the winery.
Color Bright straw yellow
Aroma Immediate and pleasant, of white flowers, fresh fruit, and citrus, with delicate exotic nuances
Taste Fresh, savory, slender, and balanced, with mineral persistence

Greco from organically grown grapes i.g.t.
The “Moro” by Marco Carpineti is a reality that has always been committed to enhancing the ancient territory of Cori and its native grape varieties. Among these stands out the Greco Moro, most likely related to the Greco Bianco found mainly in Calabria. This is a variety that has been almost completely abandoned, which has been recovered and valued with passion and love for the history of a great terroir of our wine. The result is surprising for the personality and quality of the wine. Intense and elegant, it presents itself as a true discovery absolutely worth trying.
The white “Moro” is born in one of the most original realities of the Lazio territory. The winery of Marco Carpineti is located in the area of Cori, in lower Lazio, in a region where the vine has resided since the time of the ancient Romans. The vineyards of the estate are located in the hilly areas of Capolemole, Pezzi di Ninfa, and Valli San Pietro and are characterized by the presence of precious volcanic-origin soils. The agronomic management of the vines follows the principles of organic farming, also using practices of biodynamics, in full respect of the natural environment. The clusters of Greco Moro are harvested at the cool temperatures of the early morning hours and after a brief cold maceration, they are softly pressed. The free-run must ferments in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature for about a dozen days. The wine rests for several months in steel tanks and ages for 12 months in the bottle before being put on sale.
The “Moro” wine by Marco Carpineti is a rare and very interesting white, dedicated to enthusiasts of native grape varieties, always in search of novelties. A bottle that transcends the taste of tasting a grape from the past, to enter among the most interesting proposals of the central Italy landscape. It presents itself with a light straw yellow color with bright greenish reflections. The bouquet is intense and fragrant with aromas of ripe peach, citrus peel, white-fleshed fruit, fresh almond, vegetal hints of medicinal herbs, aromatic herbs of the Mediterranean scrub, and soft spices. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with a savory taste and harmonious, crunchy fruit, which extends towards a finish of great mineral freshness.
Color Light straw yellow with greenish reflections
Aroma Decisive, articulated, reminiscent of notes of peach, almond, hay, and vegetal hints

Sparkling Trebbiano I.G.T. organic
The base wine is made from Trebbiano grapes, to which a small amount of fresh must from Trebbiano grapes is added. Bottled and sealed with a crown cap. Left to ferment in the bottle for about 12 months. After this re-fermentation phase in the bottle, disgorgement is done by hand.

Grapes: Grechetto and Malvasia Puntinata approximately 50%
The grapes are harvested together when we deem appropriate based on ripeness and our sensitivity to seasonal trends.
The processing in the winery involves destemming and soaking on the skins for about 24 hours. This is followed by pressing and the start of fermentation, which occurs spontaneously. Once the fermentation of the sugars is complete, the heavy lees are removed, and the wine is left to rest on the finer lees until they have something good to release. Clarification precedes bottling, which usually takes place about 8/9 months after the harvest.
Every movement of the wine includes, if necessary, the addition of small doses of sulfur dioxide while keeping an eye on the parameters with careful and frequent laboratory analyses.

70% Trebbian Verde 30% Ottonese
Botte Ventidue is born from an intuition of Letizia and the constant study of our territory. It is a blend of grapes from two vineyards planted in different eras and cultivated in a traditional manner. It consists of 70% Trebbian Verde and 30% Ottonese, two indigenous white grape varieties from the Olevano Romano area. The grapes are hand-harvested when they reach optimal ripeness and vinified to enhance their recognizability and adherence to the context in which we operate.
After destemming, the must ferments spontaneously in large barrels, where it ages for 11 months in contact with the coarse lees. It is from this same barrel, marked with the number 22, that the wine takes its name. Before bottling, the wine is transferred to a concrete tank, where it will remain for about a month. Botte Ventidue ages in bottle in our cellar for about three months before being released for sale.

Organic Frascati Superiore
One of the wines with the greatest history and tradition of Lazio, as well as one of the excellences in the panorama of great Italian whites. The grapes come from vineyards cultivated under organic farming. The harvest is slightly late, and only the best bunches are selected for white winemaking. Golden straw yellow color. Intense and persistent olfactory profile, with fruity aromas. On the palate, it shows good structure, a full body, well balanced and harmonious.
The blend is truly rich: 50% Malvasia Puntinata from Lazio, 20% Malvasia di Candia, 20% Bellone, and finally 10% Grechetto. This Racemo Bianco, Frascati Superiore DOCG offered by L'Olivella, really has it all. A hint of aromaticity from the Malvasias, a bit of freshness from the Bellone, and a touch of minerality from the Grechetto. The mix works really well. And to make everything even more interesting, a slightly late harvest ensures a higher sugar concentration in the grapes. More sugar translates into higher alcohol and thus greater structure.

Nzù, or being one thing. This is the meaning in the Roman dialect of Cori of the magnificent biodynamic wine in amphora by Marco Carpineti made from Bellone grapes. The Bellone grapes are naturally fermented and aged in amphora, expressing a bright straw yellow color with subtle orange hues, and the scent of wildflowers from the seven hills of Tenuta Capolemole. The Nzù Bellone from the Marco Carpineti line is a clear reference to the agriculture of ancient Rome, luminous in the glass, it captures the journey through the vineyards cultivated with biodynamic agriculture on the gentle hills of Cori. Thus, the Nzù Bellone is a symbol of the Carpineti family that expresses in union with the territory, nature, and community the horizon of the future.

Riesling Renano 2022 igp 12.5% Organic Consistent with our spirit of research, in the parcel surrounding our winery, we have planted a small vineyard of Riesling Renano. An extraordinary variety that loves altitude and gravelly soil. A long refinement in the bottle tends to bring out the tertiary aromas typical of Riesling which are accompanied by citrus notes and white-fleshed fruit. A wine to be savored with complex fish-based dishes The vast majority of our vineyards extend over the hills located between the Rieti basin and Mount Terminillo in the hamlet of Castelfranco, the altitude is between 610 and 650 meters above sea level with southern exposure for late vines and south-west for early vines. The terroir is very diverse and, depending on the area, you can find soil rich in clay and organic substance or a loamy, calcareous soil rich in minerals. Different vines have been specifically planted based on the type of land. In these mountain vineyards, maintained and cared for like gardens, each row is an expression of deep respect for nature and of man's continuous contact with the land. Most of the work in the vineyard is done by hand, organically. We therefore avoid the use of systemic products and herbicides. The extraordinary slopes, the latitude, the constant and daily ventilation, allow us to maintain a very low humidity level, guaranteeing the healthiness of the plant and the grapes. To increase the fertility of the soil we do not use chemical fertilizers, but we practice green manure: we sow a mix of grasses and legumes between the rows, leaving them to grow until flowering. In this way we provide nourishment to the soil and encourage the presence of bees and ladybugs that act, respectively, as pollinators and antagonists of parasites. Excellence is thus realized in every step of the supply chain, from the vineyard to the table.
