A dessert wine in limited production, is a tribute to Castel del Sasso, a small town in Alto Casertano, and little Riccardo, Peppe’s grandson. Riccardo received a gift at birth, a small vineyard in Sasso, which has been handed down in the family for several generations. From that Casavecchia vineyard comes this sweet dessert wine thought to be paired with Conciato romano, a precious and antique sheep cheese produced by the Lombardi family of " Le Campestre" friends whom we admire for their strength and the extraordinary passion of their extremely high quality Slow Food products.
