The Vernaccia Di San Gimignano DOCG Selvabianca - Colombaio di Santa Chiara is a white wine that captures the essence of the enchanting Tuscan area of San Gimignano, renowned for its vineyards rich in history and tradition. Obtained from the Vernaccia grape variety, an indigenous symbol of this territory, it stands out for its fresh and savory character, imparted by the calcareous soils and favorable sun exposure.
