San Patrignano
A farmhouse in the hills, an estate, a vineyard. The history of San Patrignano winery began in the ‘70s when Vincenzo Muccioli decided to create a rehabilitation Community based on solidarity. Early on only simple wines were produced – Sangiovese and Trebbiano. The vines were well tended, grapes harvested manually and crushed by foot, there was 1 wine press and 5 wood barrels; that was it. Yet the desire to experiment was irresistible and quickly led to a sparkling wine made from Sangiovese grapes.
Over the years, the vines spread to cover over 100 hectares. The turning point came in the ‘90s: wine quality improved and it became fuller-bodied. Making it an excellent local product became a challenge for the residents. New vines – mainly Montepirolo, with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc – were grafted, the Sangiovese vines were re-grafted and density was increased to 6,600 vines per hectare.
In 2023 Mention of Excellence for: - ORA Romagna DOC Sangiovese Superiore 2020: wine Ambassador of the Territory for the Rimini area - AVI Romagna DOC Sangiovese Superiore Riserva 2020: wine Ambassador of the Territory for the Rimini area
