"In that land where the sun is rising towards the towers of San Gimignano
I decided one day to plant the vineyard, and I chose the Vernaccia that I love.
The bunches caught them pine cone and the wine I took care of it by my hand,
it has a supergy and velvety taste and leaves every palate satisfied."

Mario Corbucci
