Bertinoro
Giovanna is the second generation making wine on this 12 hectare property on Montemaggio, taking over from her father who was the first president of the Regional Consorzio. Giovanna wanted to do her dad one better and continued planting higher up on their property, up to 1000 feet with new clones, high vine density (7000/ht) and trained in the ancient alberello or bush system. The steep, high, vineyards exposed to the southwest get optimal sun yet are buffeted by cooling sea breezes coming from only 5 miles away. We are truly proud to add these wines to the Artisan portfolio. They really belong.
