After pressing, both the fermentation and maturing takes place in small casks for a minimum of five years. It is offered to the consumer after a six month period of bottle refinement. This mellow dessert wine is smooth with a hazelnut finish. (Alc. 15% by vol.)

Pietrafitta Winery

The Pietrafitta winery has been producing wine over 450 years at the same location. In addition to being one of the oldest estates, Pietrafitta is one of the most famous and respected producers in the region.

The history of the winery goes back to the times of Michelangelo and Dante. In fact, both Michelangelo and Dante refer to Vernaccia in their writings. Probably, the wine was produced at Pietrafitta.

The winery is located at the top of a hill that overlooks the town of San Gimignano. Pier Paolo Muri oversees the winery operation and continues the centuries old tradition of producing fine Tuscan wines at the estate.
