"If you want to enter Ripatransone, only the Castellano will be able to let you pass." It is said that once upon a time, to protect one of the city gates, a knight covered in his face forever memorized the face of each customer, recognizing at a glance their good or bad intentions. Benevolent, but dressed in armor and a shining shield, he courageously protected the town: his name is Transone, from the Latin verb 'transire', which means 'to cross'. For friends today is the Castellano, like this Rosso Piceno DOC Superiore.
A thick mane and the look of someone who proudly guards the keys to the city. It is the Ripano Lion, symbol of Ripatransone: the loyal guide who accompanies us to discover the five hills Belvedere, Monte Antico, Capodimonte, Roflano and Agello. It is well known that a single glass of Offida DOCG Rosso is able to transfer part of its epic courage to those who drink it. Always generous and wise but woe betide him. Because Leo Ripano is only to his friends that he shows himself to be human.

Sangiovese is the good fruit of a land cultivated with respect, in a continuous cycle where doing well gives the best there is in drinking.
In the fields, the days have risen which in the evening turn into slopes
and only the breath of the wind can lift up the scents of the coast.
