Aziena Agricola Fontaleoni is a small estate whose vineyards are located at 200 meters above sea level, the ideal altitude for growing the Vernaccia varietal. It was established in 1959 when the Trioani family, vignerons for generations, moved to Tuscany. Restructured in the nineties, the cellar was renovated and new vineyards were planted in order to produce high-quality wines. Low yields of grapes, careful harvest and pressing of this fragile grape and conscientious winemaking, have produced Vernaccia wines that continues to grow in quality and fame every year since the first bottling, in 1994. Clearly, this is a estate to keep watching!
