Host information

At the foot of the Castelli Romani, in the countryside around Ardea, the volcanic soil is part of Cantina Terracanta’s story. The family has grown vines here for over 60 years, including some planted in the late ’60s.

In the vineyard and the cellar, the family follows the principles of biodynamic farming, paying close attention to the soil, natural cycles and the ecosystem. Their aim is to let the wines express where they come from.

When you visit, you get a glimpse of everyday life at the winery: you can explore the historic vineyards, see where the wines are made and discover the surrounding countryside.

Abbiamo scoperto per caso questa cantina che propone esclusivamente Dosaggio Zero, una tipologia che incontra pienamente i nostri gusti. Siamo rimasti piacevolmente colpiti dalla preparazione, dalla professionalità e dalla gentilezza della nostra guida che ci ha presentato la realtà della cantina e tutto il processo produttivo I prodotti che abbiamo degustato sono di grande qualità e raccontano una grande attenzione e passione per il proprio lavoro. Abbiamo avuto anche il piacere di conoscere il titolare, una persona preparata e disponibile, che ha reso la visita ancora più interessante e piacevole. Un'esperienza davvero bella, che consigliamo con grande piacere. Fabrizio e Barbara
