"INTRODUCTION OF THE “INDIGENO”^[1]: THE FIRST RABOSO PIAVE SULFITES FREE

The name “Indigeno” says all, an austere, tannic wine, with a pleasant acidity that distinguish the Piave’s  Raboso from other wines. Create a wine with these characteristics has not been easy for CasaRoma, we started to grown and vinify this noble grapes since 1984. The Piave’s Raboso was the preferred wine during the Venice Republic going back in 1700, most of the lands at that time was extensively producing Raboso grapes, Venetians skilled navigator use to bring on board of their ships wine into barrels of wood able to keep quality and taste almost stable without adding sulfites; and it is just from the merge of tradition and technology that CasaRoma accepted to bet on this new product. In 2003 we started to vinify the “Indigeno” at the beginning the sulfites are produced naturally and this process preserve the wine during it’s maturation.

After four years in barrel and one year in bottle the product is ready to enjoy, thanks to the continuous care and well structured processes.

"Indigeno", the name of the wine, was chosen to represent the grape that was lost and now is back, ready to occupy the market position it deserve. On the label the image represents one is a paint of a famous artist: Serse Roma, born in this area. The paint represents a "beam" of a "Bellussera", that is the traditional system of vineyard cultivation almost dismissed; but CasaRoma trust “Belussi” method and will keep use it also to preserve tradition.
