Selvapiana's vineyards on the Sieve valley east of Florence became officially certified organic in 2019 by ICEA, although the estate had been farming on organic principles for many years prior. Bucerchiale single-vineyard Riserva is the flagship.
Tip: Pair the Bucerchiale Riserva with the rosso annata to taste cool-Rufina altitude and altitude age-worthiness side by side.
