Poggio Le Volpi represents the great Latium tradition in the field of wine, the result of a thousand-year history rooted in the distant past. It is located, in fact, in the Colli Albani area, which since the times of ancient Rome was known for the quality of its wines. The original nucleus of the winery was created back in 1920 by Manlio Mergè. In those days it was a small business, selling bulk wine and oil, the two typical products of the area. The Poggio Le Volpi estate saw the light in 1996, with the purchase of the first lands in the area of Monte Porzio Catone, among the most vocated in the area for its pedoclimatic conditions that have always been suitable for viticulture. Within a few years it has been able to establish itself on the Italian wine scene for the quality and typicality of its wines.

The Poggio Le Volpi estate is located in an area of the Alban Hills of very ancient volcanic origin. The hilly area was generated by a cone belonging to the great Latium Volcano, which created a large area of soils characterized by the abundant presence of tuff, lava rocks and sands. These are draining and permeable soils, rich in mineral elements and capable of retaining deep reserves of water, which allow vines to overcome periods of drought without going through water stress. The Monte Porzio Catone area is located within a particularly valuable environmental context, surrounded by centuries-old chestnut forests that are part of the Castelli Romani Regional Park. A nature rich in biodiversity, offering the best conditions for high quality viticulture.

The vast property covers 145 hectares that enjoy sunny exposures facing south, which can always guarantee excellent ripening of the grapes. Among the rows are grown the typical varieties of the area, in particular: Malvasia del Lazio, Malvasia di Candia, Trebbiano and Montepulciano. These are grape varieties that have been present in these lands for centuries and have developed an excellent interaction with climate and soils. The winery's philosophy is geared toward the production of wines with a classic and traditional profile, based on grapes of excellent quality, the result of careful agronomic management of the vineyards and rigorous selection of the grapes. Very simple winemaking practices are adopted in the cellar, with delicate vinification that respects the varietal characteristics of the grapes.
