History
The origin of Vino Nobile goes back to the 17th century, when it was defined "The King of Tuscan Wines" (Francesco Redi, BACCO IN TOSCANA). Doubtlessly drunk and appreciated by aristocrats and gentlemen (hence its name) this wine has transcended its fame to modern times. Today it is considered one of the most prestigious red Italian wines.
Vinification and refinement
This Vino Nobile is produced and refined in the heart of the production area, between Val D’Orcia and Valdichiana, from vineyards situated in a countryside rich in monuments, villas and country homes. After a minimum ageing period of 24 months in traditional Tuscan casks, it is refined in bottle for some months. Thanks to its character, it is also a wine with ageing potential.
