Description
Made in 1989, this great wine is the symbol of the winery and one of the most representative labels from Bolgheri. Originating as a classic Bordeaux blend, it became a pure Cabernet Franc in 2001, soon achieving resounding success. The name recalls that of a wild herb of the Tuscan coast, symbolising territorial identity and stubbornness in reaching every goal.
