Omina Romana (Lazio)

​ÔMINA ROMANA is a family-run winery founded by the Börner family in 2007.
​When they had to decide where to start their business, they settled on the area around Velletri, among the lush volcanic hills of the Castelli Romani overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, about 40 km south-east of Rome. The project began with a clear vision, one which has inspired every decision since the time of its inception: creating a new kind of winegrowing and wine producing business, one whose products would embody its values – an excellence of quality born of knowledge and science, passion and dedication. This is the origin of our philosophy, Mens et Manus, i.e. mind and hand.

Our region's innate propensity for winegrowing and our discerning approach to our vocation represent the perfect union for the creation of wines whose excellent quality is guaranteed.
The ÔMINA ROMANA vineyards are located outside of Velletri, at an altitude of approximately 200 meters, roughly 25 Km from the sea.
During the day, cool breezes blow in from the Tyrrhenian coast, while a breeze comes down from the Alban Hills at night, creating the ideal conditions for healthy vine growth. Cold springs are usually followed by sunny summers which are not too hot and by mild autumns, the ideal conditions for complete maturation of the grapes, guaranteeing a soft taste, without any tart notes.
The soil, being both volcanic and abounding in minerals, is able to provide strength to the vines, producing grapes with great aromatic richness. We cultivate our vineyards for a low per-hectare yield, subjecting each bunch to a selection process, both in the vineyard and at the winery, checking for any unsound grapes before proceeding to controlled temperature processing.
​Our wines receive the final touch after fermentation, when they are aged on fine lees for at least six months. It is the marvelous phenolic transfer that the wines undergo in small French oak barriques, toasted to varying degrees, something that imbues them with the most noble aromas. After that, we patiently wait for the continued ageing in the bottle to give our wines maturity and fullness.
