About Monastero Trappiste Vitorchiano - natural wines made by nuns!

Amid Lazio’s volcanic tufa soils, the Cistercian Trappist nuns of Vitorchiano treat winemaking as a form of liturgy. Guided by Giampiero Bea, they hand-tend decades-old vines, ferment with wild yeasts and bottle without frills. The result is “Coenobium,” an amber-tinged, skin-contact white, and “Benedic,” a savoury red—both rustic, quietly oxidative and as honest as the cloister that raises them.
