Descrizione

This Toscana IGT 2019 by Banfi, in the prestigious Jéroboam version, presents itself as a wine of great elegance and structure, an authentic expression of the Tuscan territory. Produced from selected grapes, it tells the harmonious meeting between native grape varieties and the winemaking experience of the Banfi winery, renowned for quality and innovation.

On the palate, it stands out for a perfect balance between soft tannins and lively acidity, offering an elegant and enveloping persistence.

Ideal to accompany robust dishes of Tuscan cuisine, such as roasted meats and aged cheeses, this Jéroboam is perfect for moments of sharing that require a wine capable of amazing and lasting over time.

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.
