Vino Bianco DOC

Vernaccia di San Gimignano is the first Italian wine to obtain DOC status. Due to its high and consistent quality, it also later obtained DOCG status. A wine liked by rulers and pontiffs, refined gourmets of the period, to the point of deserving a place in purgatory among gluttons "a purgar per digiuno le anguille e la vernaccia." Some claim that Vernaccia originated in Liguria, in the Cinque Terre. We would not like to say amenity, but the appearance is not so dissimilar to the Bosco grape both in terms of the shape of the grain and the productive capacity. In this case we operate a true selection of the best grapes from our Vigna del Sole.

Why Choose It:

The Vigna del Sole is ideal for those seeking an elegant and versatile white wine, perfect for accompanying light dishes. Its freshness and acidity make it suitable as an aperitif or for appetizers, enhancing flavors without overpowering them.

Host information

San Gimignano is a hill town in Tuscany located southwest of Florence. Surrounded by 13th-century walls, the centerpiece of its historic center is Piazza della Cisterna, a triangular square lined with medieval houses. Prominent in the skyline of medieval towers is the stone Torre Grossa. In San Gimignano, Pietraserena spreads out on both sides of the hill in a north-northeast direction.

Since 1966, the farm estates have experienced a constant territorial expansion, starting from the initial 7 hectares or so to reach the current extension of about 42 hectares. Being in the heart of the municipality of San Gimignano, the main grape variety at the beginning was naturally Vernaccia di San Gimignano, the first wine to obtain DOC status in Italy. Later Sangiovese was planted, the prince vine of Tuscany and all of Italy, and which in our estate gives life to our most representative "crus," Caulio and Poggio al Vento.

Each vineyard, delimited and circumscribed, has its own distinctive name, from which we draw the grapes that are vinified separately. When the wine is obtained, the various blends are made, which always go to characterize our bottles.
