Le Coste
Gradoli · Lazio · Italy
At the border between Lazio and Umbria lies Le Coste. This area boasts its Etruscan heritage and stunning landscapes, including the Valle dei Calanchi, which stretches along the slopes of Civita di Bagnoregio. The soils here are of volcanic origin, rich in iron and minerals, giving the wines an aromatic quality. Le Coste was founded in February 2004 when the owners, Gianmarco and Clementine, acquired three hectares of abandoned land known as 'Le Coste'. Their vision was to cultivate products through organic practices, in harmony with the natural environment.
“Today, Le Coste extends over approximately 14 hectares, including three hectares of vineyards meticulously planted by Gianmarco and Clementine.”
The remaining forested area hosts a variety of Mediterranean shrubs, wild chestnut trees, oaks, and elms. Gianmarco and Clementine follow biodynamic principles in managing their vineyards. In the cellar, they avoid interventions, ensuring that their wines faithfully reflect the characteristics of each vintage.
