La Luna del Casale

an Organic Farm

Our products are all organically grown: the wine from the low yielding Lanuvian Hills is of the highest quality and reflects the particular characteristics of the land. The extra virgin olive oil is made from hand-picked olives and cold pressed. You will receive a warm welcome on your visits to celebrate the beauty and fruits of this Territory with us.

Luna (Moon), for the ancient Latin people, was the goddess of the celestial body that lights the night, and, through its phases, punctuates the rhythm of fertility of women and harvests.

The Moon, that shines quiet and aware over our lands, along with us takes care of the vines and the olive trees from which we breed oils and wines that have the excellence of passion.

Feet on the Earth, head in the Sky.

LA LUNA DEL CASALE® is a family business: inside it there’s my care, a young and well-known oenologist’s talent, my husband’s support, the joyful smile of my children (who sometimes decorate the casks with coloured chalks!), but, most of all, a deeply suitable Territory (the Colli Lanuvini – the hills around Lanuvio), that we go along with by natural processes, a look at organic farming and very low yields. For this reason, our Customers know they can rely on us, from the vineyard to the bottle.

LA LUNA DEL CASALE: The hills, the passion, the people.

The hills…

The Colli Lanuvini represent an area of extraordinary vocation for viticulture. Located at the foothills of the volcano in the Parco dei Castelli Romani, these gentle slopes offer a unique and privileged environment for grape cultivation. The pedoclimatic conditions of the Colli Lanuvini are optimal for the production of high-quality grapes. The volcanic soil, rich in minerals and nutrients, provides the vines with a solid and nourishing foundation to grow vigorous and produce fruits rich in character. Furthermore, the moderate altitude and hillside position favor a temperate climate, with temperature variations that contribute to a balanced grape ripening, maintaining freshness and aromatic complexity. The presence of a variety of microclimates within the Colli Lanuvini allows for the cultivation of different grape varieties, ensuring diversification in winemaking production and the opportunity to best express the characteristics of each variety. Furthermore, the scenic beauty of the Colli Lanuvini, with its picturesque landscapes and rich history that permeates the region, adds further value to the territory, inspiring a deep connection between the land, the local community, and winemaking production.
