- anecdotesSangiovese, the most common varietal in Umbria and central Italy and has produced some great wines both in blends and in the 100% versions. Due to its characteristics and when produced using vineyard and cellar techniques that enhance its liveliness, it is ideal even for young, pleasant wines that accompany us every day and satisfy our desire for spontaneity.
The stylized motif on the label is inspired by the four-lobed 14th-century lozenges that decorate the façade of the Perugia Cathedral: a balance of forms that interprets not only history and elegance but modernism as well.
