About this wine

They are very hard but also highly friable and are rich in potassium and trace elements. The line’s white wines are characterized by freshness, marked acidity, minerality and fruit.

Label / history
“Matile” takes its name from the soil type found in the vineyards used for the line. An alternative interpretation associates it with the Etruscan word “Papile,” meaning “able to light up,” evoking the volcanic material that makes the ground sparkle in the sun.
