The Grassi family has been growing grapes and making wine at their estate in Lamole (northern part of central Italy) since the 1600’s. FUN FACT! As well as making wine, the family was also the local blacksmith (or I Fabbri), which became the name of their label. In the late 1990's, current keepers-of-the-grapes Susanna Grassi and her sister Maddalena resuscitated the vines and made I Fabbri into one of the leading estates in Lamole! #POWERSIBLINGS. A certified organic and biodynamically cared for Riserva, showcasing MORE structure and power without sacrificing any of the purity and elegance Lamole sangiovese is known for. Wild violets, leather sling shot holding stones, dark cherry thunderstorm with raspberry lightning, the mushroom at the end of the world, vanilla pod on a cedar plant & dried sage carry through. Enjoy with traditional Tuscan snacks like crostini toscani!
