Apolide Nero Buono

Apolide is a red wine made from Nero Buono grown in the estate’s Ninfa vineyard, a tranquil terrace on the slopes of the Lepini Mountains, facing Cape Circeo on the Tyrrhenian Sea. Ninfa is open to the winds and a considerable temperature shift. It is along the peaceful Route Francigena, an ancient pilgrimage road that begins Canterbury in England, passes through France and Switzerland, to Roma and on to Puglia. The name ‘Apolide’ means stateless, as this red wine goes beyond its origins – cosmopolitan, complex and intriguing at the taste.
