1996 | Fiorano | Bianco Vino da Tavola

Producer Information

The Tenuta di Fiorano estate is located on via di Fioranello 19-31, between the Appia Antica (Appian Way) and Ciampino airport, and belongs to Prince Alessandrojacopo Boncompagni Ludovisi. Tenuta di Fiorano’s fame is directly linked to the late Prince Alberico Boncompagni Ludovisi, a gentleman from another era who has deservedly become a legend. Prince Alberico fell in love with winemaking between the 1940s and ’50s and, in a pioneering move for Italy, decided to plant Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for his red wines and Malvasia Candida and Sémillon, a novelty for Italy at the time, for the whites. Between 1999 and 2004, Alessandro acquired another 13 hectares of land to add to the estate. With his father he also planted an experimental vineyard near their Santa Fresca villa and then, under Alberico’s supervision and using his replanting rights, they replanted the vineyards that had been uprooted. At the time Alessandro was just over 20 and did not have a lot of experience in winegrowing. However, he did have a passion for wine and benefitted from Alberico’s advice in regard to choosing the right soils, clones and the style of vine training. Everything was done strictly according to organic principles, from the cultivation of the grapes right through to the making of the wine, under the supervision of Alberico’s steward and trusted farm hand Gianni Valenti.
