Rosso Le Due Arbie
IGT Toscana 2016
Creativity is not enough to redefine a classic; neither is courage. You need solid roots, planted firmly in a strong land. You need the experience and knowledge of the generations who have worked the soil. You need pride in your past. These are the only ways for Tuscany to produce a new red wine, young and fresh, taking the best of myriad traditions and learning how to express its authentic, very personal character.
