Varietal Birthplace Year
Vernaccia Tuscany 2009
The Vernaccia I Macchioni is produced from the estate's best vineyard sites. This wine is characterized by its pale straw yellow color, almond scents and medium body. You will also notice aromas of lemon, citrus blossom and plantain and flavors of lemon cream and under-ripe papaya. Extended aging on lees has given the wine an uncommon richness and length.

On the slopes northeast of the picturesque hill-town of San Gimignano, lies the town of Pancole which is considered to be among the best grape-growing areas in Tuscany. Casa alle Vacche winery and vineyards are found in this zone. The estate has been in the Ciappi family for several generations, and young Fernando and Lorenzo Ciappi, with the aid of consulting enologist Luigino Casagrande, combine traditional production techniques with modern viticultural practices to produce exemplary Vernaccias. Now that you have tasted the wine you have to visit San Gimignano.
This wine is ideal as an aperitif all but is extremely versatile and goes well with chicken, grilled fish, grilled shrimp or salads. I like it with my Antipasto Calabrese, which is a bit of everything--part salad, part vegetables, all graced with some tuna. Serve with a crusty loaf of Italian bread for a terrific lunch or light dinner.
San Gimignano is a wonderful small walled medieval hill town in the province of Siena, Tuscany. It is mainly famous for its medieval architecture, especially its 14 towers, which may be seen from several miles outside the town.
