Located in the best Tuscan terroirs to produce the main wines of this extraordinary wine region, the Frescobaldi winery has established itself as one of the oldest and most extensive wineries in Europe and in the world.

One of the most typical aspects of Italian viticulture is its great heterogeneity. For this reason, we like to look for producers and wines in many different areas, to find out which "jewels" are produced.
