ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Pãcina is a magic place. Named after the Etruscan god of wine, it is located in Castelnuovo Berardenga, along the ancient road connecting Arezzo and Siena. Here Giovanna Tiezzi and Stefano Borsa are carrying on a 1000-year old, local tradition of food and wine production. Their property includes vines, olive groves and woodlands. Lucky enough to have a site that doesn’t need anything, Giovanna and Stefano produce wines with little or no intervention. Their wines reflect the unique soils and microclimate found on their vineyard. Pãcina’s wines are delicate, pretty and floral, but with great structure and strength.
