The Podere, located at 196 Strada Provinciale Bolgherese, a few kilometres from famous Viale dei Cipressi and Castagneto Carducci in the Livorno district, Tuscany, has been since 1980s the family holidays house of Silvia Cirri, Majority shareholder and CEO of the company. It is in the centre of a dip ground of 4.9 hectares with 800 olive trees, some of which are century old, of the Tuscan variety Leccino, Frantoio and Moraiolo; in 2015 0.2 hectares of Cabernet Franc were planted among the rows.
In 2014 Silvia, Chief physician of Anaesthesiology, Resuscitation and Intensive Care Unit of IRCCS Ospedale Galeazzi – Sant’Ambrogio of Gruppo San Donato in Milan, and great lover of wine, after having attended the three-year course of Associazione Italiana Sommelier, decided with her partner Livio Aloisi and her nephew Giovanni Gastel Jr to become wine maker in Bolgheri.
For the DOC Bolgheri Agapanto Silvia is making a courageous choice as it is not typical of the classic blends of the Bolgheri area, that is to add to the Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, which have always been the basis of the Denomination, Ciliegiolo, a native grape variety she is passionate about.
