“Tuscan producer Panizzi spotlights ageworthy Vernaccia with its Riserva wines – as well as youthful expressions of the grape”.
Here is a small excerpt from the article published in Decanter magazine in June 2025, dedicated to Panizzi wines.
A 10-year wait
“Panizzi takes this pursuit of ageability even further with its ‘Ten Years After’ Riserva Storica project. Beginning in 2011, this programme saw Panizzi Riserva Vernaccia di San Gimignano wines left to age in the cellar for a decade before release. The next release will be the 2016 – a wine crafted from expertise, vision and extraordinary patience.
Panizzi is a striking example of a winery that fully understands its region and its variety – and wants to explore both to the fullest extent. With its range of Vernaccia wines – regular winners of medals at the Decanter World Wine Awards – Panizzi embraces the passage of time to create a range of truly great Italian white wines”.
