Castore is named after the mythical Dioscuri to whom the temple of Castor and Pollux is dedicated, of which the archeological remains enrich Cori’s heritage.
Wine of refined elegance, obtained entirely from the Bellone grapes, an ancient grape variety also known as “bread grape” for the soft and delicate skin. Low yields per hectare and an accurate vinification make this a fragrant and delicately fruity wine.
