Folgóre San Gimignano Rosso DOC
Folgóre is a Red Tuscan blend of San Gimignano origin which comes from a single vineyard of about 1 hectare, planted in the 90s and with a special training system called open lyre which acts as a power house for the sangiovese, merlot and cabernet grapes, allowing us to produce a wine with extraordinary concentration and intensity. Dedicated to Folgóre, the 13th century poet born in San Gimignano, is a rare wine with important evolutionary skills.
