The notes of flowers and citrus fruits blend perfectly with the typical mineral notes of the Vernaccia. Complex and dense on the palate, good intensity. Its full-bodied nature and lively freshness ensure a long finish with notes of almonds.

Vinification
The beak of a bird, the ears of a hare, the hooves of a goat, the tail of a squirrel and the hands of a human: the fabulous creature on the Sant’Elena is the result of the vivid imagination of the Middle Ages and is as eye-catching today as it was then. Like this Vernaccia, whose grapes come exclusively from the three-hectare vineyard of the same name, Sant’Elena in San Gimignano. The wine is ready for drinking around two years after harvest, having spent 15–18 months on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks.
