Description

“If you want to enter Ripatransone,
only the Castellan can let you pass”.
It is said that in the past, to protect one
of the city gates, a knight would forever memorise the face of anyone passing through, distinguishing whether they had good or bad intentions at a mere glance. Benevolent, but dressed in shining armour, he bravely defended the town: his name
is Transone from the Latin verb ‘transire’, which means to cross or enter. For friends today, it is Castellano, with this Rosso Piceno Superiore doc.
