The Cantine Capitani winery was established in 1974 under the name "Trevignano Vino" in Trevignano Romano. The vines cultivated in the area included indigenous grape varieties such as Trebbiano, Greco, Malvasia, Sangiovese, and Montepulciano. As the first winery in the town, the initial labels presented, and still existing today, are blends of indigenous grapes such as Trebbiano and Malvasia for the "LacusTre Bianco," and Sangiovese and Montepulciano for the "LacusTre Rosso". In the mid-2000s, the "young" Capitani family began to explore the world of international grape varieties.

Starting with Merlot and Syrah, grape varieties that have thrived in these volcanic lands and matured both in the young form of steel and in the more aged form of wood, we have continued with the international white wines Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Viognier, while maintaining on the label the name of the grape variety that makes up the wine in purity. Furthermore, we are rediscovering the indigenous grape varieties such as Cesanese d'Affile, offered as a single-variety wine aged in wood, with the 2018 vintage being the first release. In 2009, Trevignano Vino also introduced Extra Virgin Olive Oil, pleasant, delicate, with typical taste and aroma of the local variety. In addition, thanks to an encounter with a craft distiller near Rome, we have created an Acquavite of grape Sangiovese, a soft and enveloping white wine distillate.
