Solalto 2020

Solalto is the outcome of Elisabetta’s dream to create a sweet wine that could underline the meditative part of her character from on vine withering of Traminer, Sauvignon and Semillon grapes in Scansano. The illustration on the label is a drawing made by Clara, Elisabetta’s eldest daughter, when she was a child and it represents our land and the sea, well embraced by Maremma’s unique sunlight, just like the grapes Solalto has been made of.
