Coenobium is unlike anything else—and it always has been. Made by the Cistercian nuns of Vitorchiano, just north of Rome, and guided by natural wine legend Giampiero Bea, this humble-looking bottle delivers deeply characterful wine rooted in simplicity, tradition, and quiet devotion.

The 2023 vintage continues its soulful rhythm. A blend of Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Verdicchio, it sees a few days of skin contact, native yeast fermentation, and zero intervention beyond time and care. The result is a gently amber-tinted white with notes of dried herbs, orchard fruit, chamomile, and a slightly nutty, oxidative edge. It’s not showy or trendy—it’s honest, layered, and deeply grounded.

Drink it cool, not cold. Pair it with roasted root vegetables, aged cheeses, or a moment of stillness. Coenobium isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence. A wine made not for the market, but for the moment.

What importer Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine...

Produced in an entirely natural manner under the guidance of Giampiero Bea, the Coenobium is a blend of Trebbiano, Verdicchio, and Malvasia, harvested together and co-fermented without added yeasts or temperature stabilization. Aged on its fine lees in steel and fiberglass tanks, it is bottled just before the next harvest without fining or filtering. The nose is evocative of autumn on multiple sensory levels, with aromas of fennel fronds, chamomile tea, almonds, and tangerine that lead into a full but delicately rendered palate. Vitorchiano’s volcanic soils come through with a somber smoke-iron interplay, and glowing acidity lets the savory flavors coat the mouth, yet the overall impression is one of freshness and drinkability.
