Established in 1973, the Sorelle Palazzi estate is Biodynamic certified [technically “biologica” and “organic” in Italy have a different meaning, but the base idea is very very similar]. Situated between Pisa and Volterra, in the heart of ‘Colli Pisani,’ 150 mt above sea level, the estate covers 60 acres, 27 of which covered with vineyards. 22 acres of which are olive trees that produce Extra Virgin Olive Oil of superior quality. The vineyards are composed of native Tuscan varieties, so Sangiovese, black Malvasia, Canaiolo, Colorino.
The vinification follows the Tuscan tradition, using modern technologies. Particular attention is reserved to Vin Santo DOC Riserva, aged for at least four years in Caratelli (basically small barriques of around 100lt used for vin santo) of oak or chestnut wood, after the drying of the grapes on wickers until February (5 months after the harvest). sorellepalazzi.it
