SPRING 2024
We have left behind a tough harvest and no winter.
Temperatures always above 5°C and so many sunny days between January and February, more than warm, almost hot. Some rain in November, but lucky us March started gloomy, rainy and cool, slowing down a little the rush of buds which, in the Sangiovese vineyards facing West, finally opened today.
We have been lucky enough to have frequent, gentle but abundant rains. The aquifers have recovered somewhat after the great droughts of recent summers.
We continue pruning, with no urgency to preserve the buds from potential April frosts and we prepare for such a long cleaning jobs under the rows.
The green manures grow, it is a great symphony of green, yellow, pink, purple….
NEWS FROM THE VINEYARD
sincere thanks to our friends Kevin&Reiner for sharing some shots of their picnic< /span>
The Picnic in the Vineyard calendar opened in March. The formula is always the same, but we have added small sitting spots around the vineyards and woods to make your stop more comfortable.
In 2022 we started the Pic-nic in Vigna, and in 2023, under a lovely sun, many guests have spent a day immersed into the nature, relaxing and enjoying the flavors of the Lands of Pisa among our hills, under the shade of the large oak tree or in the olive grove

NEWS FROM THE CELLAR
New Vintages
three wines to drink and drink again
Aprilante 2023
IGT Toscana Vermentino ORGANIC
We bottled it at the beginning of March, as usual, so that it can be ready to your Easter table..
The 2023 harvest gave us just few grapes and this will be a very limited vintage as number of bottles available on our online shop.
If you love the mineral fruit of this Vermentino, its sincere and immediate drinkability, this is the best time to buy it before stocks run out.
Rossato 2023
IGT Toscana Rosato Sangiovese ORGANIC
Nomen omen. This 2023 vintage clearly represents the meaning of theRossato name.
A deep rosé, with that ruby red of the blood orange that characterizes the Sangiovese from the Uccelliera vineyard
A full-bodied rosé, with a savory but sweet drink. A certainly gastronomic rosé
You loved it, you waited for it!
It’s finally back in the bottle.
Appunto 2019
IGT Toscana Merlot
2019 was a difficult season for Sangiovese, but a splendid vintage for Merlot.
The intense sun, and the sea breezes that constantly swept the Voliera vineyard, gave this wine born on blue clay, complexity and savoury finish.
The Appunto has a rich and fruity expression: it’s a fresh wine, with round tannins and a varietal finish.
As usual, the long ageing in cement gives to it an almost unexpected smoothness.
from April 1st shipping rates will unfortunately rise up again.
Take advantage of this last week of March to complete your online order and bring our wines to your Easter table
