This estate can be thought of as the ‘godfather’ of organic farming in Tuscany. The estate is currently run and cared for by Giovanna Tiezzi and her husband Stefano. There is no technology involved in the winemaking, and in fact the cellar has not been touched for generations. The changes have come in the vineyards, where Stefano has replanted using clones and cuttings from their own vineyards grafted onto the rootstock at the nursery, keeping the vines resistant to sickness and more prolific.
