Region: Toscana
DOC(G):
Vernaccia
di San Gimignano
Chianti Colli Senesi
About the Producer:
Vincenzo Cesani
migrated to Tuscany from his native Marche, attracted by the congenial,
funloving work attitude of the Tuscans. "Every activity on
the farm became a community festa, from raising a new barn to the
harvest
of the olives in autumn." His daughter Letizia has helped
him establish a new reputation for San Gimignano reds with the
success of their
renowned 'Supertuscan' Luenzo, awarded Gambero Rosso's "Tre
Bicchieri"
award for the second time in 2002. Their vineyards sit on the
highest slopes of the area where Vernaccia grapes could not thrive
but
where the native Sangiovese has found a home to express its soft
and lush side.
