Ormanni IGT Toscana Rosso
The 13th Century Ormanni estate is located in the heart of Chianti, between the towns of Poggibonsi and Castellinai. For the last 200 years, the estate has been owned by the Brini Batacchi family who has been producing true expressions of what the region has to offer.
Paolo Brini Batacchi together with his daughter Paola run the winery today to this day. The Ormanni property spreads across 242 ha of land, 68 of which are vineyards largely dedicated to the cultivation of Sangiovese. They also own two beautiful agriturismo resorts, Podere La Querce and Podere Montignano.
This wine is produced with Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes hand picked from our vineyards, grown on soil of sand and limestone compacted with abundant seashell fossils that enrich the wine with minerality. The sand and limestone amplify the very agreeable aromas and flavours of fresh red fruits.
