The story
The estate retains historical roots tied to the Giulianini family, with evidence of production dating back centuries; the current winemaking project was recently developed by Alessandro Annibali together with his son Tito, aiming to revive the family's wine production by combining local tradition with international grape varieties. The company website also mentions plantings and vineyards historically present in the areas of Villa Rovere and Signolo.
Production philosophy
Family-run approach that favors manual harvesting and direct oversight of the winemaking stages; a strong focus on international blends while maintaining a connection to the territory through Sangiovese. Use of different aging vessels to produce structured, characterful wines.
