The Toscana IGT 2020 Summus by Banfi is a wine that embodies the elegance and complexity of the Tuscan territory, a true jewel of the denomination. Made mainly with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah grapes, this expertly balanced blend best expresses the winemaking vocation of the region, characterized by a mild climate and clay-limestone soils.



The aging in French barriques gives Summus rich aromatic intensity and a harmonious structure, where notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and a delicate hint of vanilla emerge. On the palate, it is full-bodied, soft, and enveloping, with well-integrated tannins that enhance its persistence.



Perfect to accompany red meats, game, and aged cheeses, this wine is a refined choice for those seeking a deep sensory experience representative of the best of Tuscany.

Winery history
Cantina Santi was founded as a winery in Illasi and has been present in Valpolicella since the 19th century. During the 20th century the Santi family introduced technical innovations and progressively focused on high-end wines; in 1974 the winery became part of Gruppo Italiano Vini, which reinforced investments and facilities while preserving its local identity.
Production philosophy
Santi claims a style tied to the sense of place of Valpolicella: it favors the predominant use of Corvina in its selections, aging in large traditional casks, and the use of local woods to enhance the aromatic qualities typical of native grape varieties. The approach combines oenological research with respect for local practices.
Terroir and vineyards
Santi's vineyards and selections are concentrated in Val d'Illasi and the classic areas of Valpolicella, using a vineyard-selection approach across different exposures and microclimates to produce wines that reflect the local terroir. The winery also works with vineyards in other Veronese appellations such as Soave, Bardolino and Lugana.
