Tenuta le Potazzine’s History and Wines
The Potazzine in Montalcino are the Cinciallegre, small and lively birds, an endorsement given to girls when they are small, in fact it was the maternal grandmother of Viola and Sofia to call her granddaughters so.
The daughters of Gigliola Giannetti , have now grown, and help their mother in running the company, 5 hectares all planted with vines in Brunello , located more than 500 meters above sea level, in a plateau where the wind keeps the grapes healthy, which are grown in a bio regime.
In the cellar, full respect for nature, with only indigenous yeasts and very long aging in large Slavonian oak barrels.
The care of the vineyards and spontaneous fermentations, give these wines complexity and elegance, making them always faithful to the territory. For years now Le Potazzine have been exported to many foreign countries, but also to the most beautiful Italian locations, proud to represent a small piece of quality made in Italy .
