This wine is dedicated to the Roman god Janus, who watches over every beginning and every end with his two faces. In the same way, with great care in the vineyards and diligence in the cellar, this wine emanates elegance, power and pleasantness from start to finish. The grapes, which are produced on some of the best vineyards in our estate, and the careful selection of berries, make this wine one of the highest quality representatives of ÔMINA ROMANA.
