Simona Orsini & Alessandro Tofanari

Poggibonsi (SI) - TUSCANY

Husband and wife duo, Alessandro Tofanari and Simona Orsini, have been producing wine in the San Giminiano area of Tuscany for over two decades. Their approach is one of low intervention, both in the vineyard and the cellar, but also revisiting ancient growing techniques and wine making styles.

The varieties Alessandro and Simona work with are Sangiovese, Trebbiano Toscano, Canaiolo, Colorino, Malvasia Toscana and, of course, Vernaccia. Vineyards are planted on sand and clay, with some marine sediments, and some date back to the 1940s.
