Casale Certosa is a family winery in Santa Palomba, Rome.
We grow grapes on volcanic soils and have produced organic wines since 2004. We work with spontaneous fermentations and minimal intervention in the cellar, to bring out the character of the land and of our native and international varieties.
A simple project, rooted in the land and in daily work.
Grapes and production
Our production includes whites, reds and bottle-refermented wines, all IGT Lazio.
We prefer steel to preserve freshness and minerality, typical traits of the Agro Romano soils.
You can buy and find our wines directly at the estate, or with wine shops, taverns and restaurants.
You have to give before you receive: it’s the idea that best suits the making of a handmade product like wine. We are simple farmers lent to the world of wine.
What they say about us
Reviews and testimonials about Casale Certosa: organic wine of Lazio and a cellar in the Agro Romano, at the gates of Rome.
These don’t strike me as the type who’d buy face cream from a TV huckster — speaking of Casale Certosa’s move toward the biodynamic method and someone’s scepticism about it.
You can’t talk about Casale Certosa without mentioning the meticulous care with which the splendid vineyards are grown and the small but well-equipped cellar is run. Not to be overlooked, the beauty of the place — improbably, at the gates of Rome.
Antonio Cosmi is one of those people who could never lie to please anyone; we who love sincerity find him a thoroughly decent person — as well as fun and enterprising.
At dinner my wife opens a bottle of Casale Certosa Grechetto: “finally, home.”
