Alberico is an exceptionally small-scale wine project in Lazio, founded from the vision of Prince Alberico. Its vineyards include volcanic soils, eight rows planted to Merlot and Cabernet, and an old-vine Sémillon parcel planted in the 1940s. The vines have been farmed organically for more than 50 years, although no formal certification is stated. Production is intentionally limited to the best vintages, reflecting a highly selective approach. The available information does not identify a winemaker or specify a formal ownership structure.
