About Cotarella

The Falesco vineyards extend over a vast area that goes from Montefiascone to Lake Bolsena, in Upper Lazio, areas particularly suited to the cultivation of grapes that the Cotarella brothers have studied and researched for years. The lands that gently slope from Montefiascone towards the Tiber valley are home to Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Rossetto vines, a species belonging to the Greco grape family which has almost been lost. The areas planted with vines near Bolsena, on the other hand, descend more rapidly towards the lake and the alternation of areas at higher altitudes with a cool climate and plains with a Mediterranean climate favours the optimal ripening of the Aleatico grapes. Alongside the native varieties, there are also international vines such as Merlot, Syrah, and Viognier, which have found a perfect habitat on the volcanic-sedimentary soils of these hills. Falesco is first and foremost the result of the great passion and great competence of the Cotarella brothers, essential elements that have led to a production that is always faithful to itself, even in a spirit of curious exploration and scientific dynamism in cultivation and winemaking. Their innate curiosity has led them to discover all the potential of the territories and vines that host them, enhancing their peculiarities and uniqueness to the fullest. The result is extremely interesting labels, known and appreciated by both national and international amateurs and connoisseurs.
