In the province of Siena, in the heart of Tuscany, lives the ‘white queen’ – Vernaccia di San Gimignano – whose name is taken by both the DOCG region and its key grape variety. Her vineyards gaze up to the striking hilltop skyline of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed medieval ‘city of towers’ (there are 14 that remain visible today) of San Gimignano.
To taste Vernaccia di San Gimignano is to be transported into a historical tapestry of art and culture; lauded by poets, popes and aristocrats, this wine’s long, noble recorded history dates back to at least 1276.
