Damiano Ciolli's Silene, named after a very common flower from the countryside of Olevano Romano, is obtained from a careful selection of Cesanese from 4 different vineyards, planted at different times. Refine in concrete tanks for about a year. A perfectly successful wine with a brilliant ruby red color with characteristic aromas of black cherries and violets. On the palate it is fresh, agile with a remarkable persistence in spite of the slender structure.
