Hailing from the historic hills of Orvieto in Umbria, Antinori's Casasole Amabile is a beautiful tribute to the traditional off-dry style of the region. Historically, Orvieto wines were prized for their sweetness, a characteristic born from the ancient Etruscan practice of fermenting grapes in cool, tufa-rock caves, which naturally halted fermentation and left behind luscious residual sugars. Casasole is crafted from a classic blend of Procanico and Grechetto, supplemented by other local white varieties. The grapes are harvested and gently pressed, with fermentation stopped by rapid cooling to preserve its natural sweetness and vibrant aromatics. The result is a wine that captures the sun-drenched terroir of Umbria, offering a delicate bouquet of yellow flowers, ripe peaches, and honeyed citrus, backed by a refreshing acidity that keeps the palate lively.

Tracing its winemaking heritage back to 1385 when Giovanni di Piero Antinori joined the Florentine Winemakers' Guild, Marchesi Antinori has been shaped by twenty-six generations of family leadership. Headquartered in the heart of Chianti Classico, the family has expanded its portfolio across prestigious estates in Tuscany, Umbria, and beyond, driven by a philosophy that balances deep historical respect with bold innovation. Antinori famously pioneered the "Super Tuscan" movement in the 1970s, introducing revolutionary French oak aging and international varieties to create iconic labels like Tignanello and Solaia. Today, their diverse portfolio spans from the elegant Sangiovese of Badia a Passignano to the acclaimed white blend Cervaro della Sala, cementing their legacy as global ambassadors of Italian fine wine.
