HISTORY:
Governo all’uso Toscano is an ancient wine-making method existing since 1330 and allowed only in Tuscany. This technique implies a selection of best choice grapes: 80% is vinified following the traditional method, while the remaining 20% are harvested mature and laid to dry on racks. During the second fermentation, wine develops more intense colour and a full and round taste
