Tasting Notes: The Monastero Suore Cistercensi Coenobium Ruscum is an orange wine made from Malvasia and Trebbiano grown and produced by nuns in Lazio. The operation is overseen by Giampero Bea of the Paolo Bea winery in Umbria. Orange peel, wild herbs, and a tannic richness all shine on this unique wine. Try with roast pork, grilled veggies or wild game and offal dishes.
Estate History: The "nun wine"! The Sisters of the Cistercian order in Lazio have been growing grapes on the monastery grounds since the 1990s, but their wines became even more special when winemaker Paolo Bea started advising them in the early 2000s. The wines have been naturally made with organic grapes, indigenous yeasts, no fining or filtering, a truly holistic experience!
