Poggio di Cicignano Description
A challenge taken almost ten years ago: bringing back to life the old forgotten family vineyards located in Montemurio near Prato and embracing the philosophy of a natural and repsectful production. Vanempo currently farms 8 hectares avoiding any chemicals and pesticides.
Tramanto is a field blend made from Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Malvasia Nera, sourced from two small vineyards planted in 1967 and 1980, both on clay on chalky soils. Hand harvested in open concrete vats. The wine ages for 18 months in used tonneaux and then 12 months in the bottle before being released to the market. Unfined and unfiltered. No invasive cellar practices. Decant this minamal wine 30 minutes before drinking.
