This winery, founded by brothers Michele and Antonio Russo, decided to bottle their wines themselves in 1998. Located in Suvereto, one of the best areas of the Val di Cornia, the winery has big plans. Of the total 80 hectares, 10 hectares are planted with vines. With the support of the oenologists Alberto Antonini (ex Antinori) and Francesco Bartoletti, they intend to produce great wines in the coming years, which will be the flagship of this area.
