Tasting Notes
"Tonnes of concentration and polish in a very oak-driven style. The aromas are fresh, with black fruits dotted with mint and splashed with balsamic. The notable oak carries on the palate with full-bodied, chocolatey red fruits finishing with firm tannins. Still young with great ageing potential."

The Producer
Vallepicciola
The history of Vallepicciola began in 1999, when the businessman Bruno Bolfo and his sister Giuseppina, originally from Liguria, decided to renovate an old abandoned nunnery, located near their country house in Pievasciata, small village close to Castelnuovo Berardenga, a few kilometers from Siena. Today the convent is the wonderful 5-star Hotel Le Fontanelle that attracts tourists from all over the world, thanks to a unique, elegant structure and a special attention to every detail.
The Vallepicciola farm was born near the hotel, which today produces 12 wines using only its own grapes, as well as vin santo, grappa and olive oil.
