This is a very elegant wine embodying its land of origin, and named after the mythical Dioskouroi, “sons of Zeus”, to whom the ancient Temple of Castor and Pollux is dedicated. This wine is produced by using purity vinification of Bellone grapes. This latter is a local species of grape also known as “uva pane”, due to its thin and delicate skin. The price is for 6 bottles.
Cori is an ancient town set in olive groves and vineyards, about 50 km south of Rome. As with many other towns and cities, its history often overlaps with myth. It is said that its origins date back to the first millennium BCE, when the Trojan Dardanus, escaping with Aeneas after the destruction of Troy, founded Cori and named it Corace D’Argo.
