"Founded in 1969, when Fiorella Lepri took a leap of faith and purchased the property from the Florentine noblewoman Emma Bizzarri. Maintaining her legacy through the name of the winery, “Casa Emma.”
PHILOSOPHY: Working as one force to regenerate and sustain earth's fertility and deliver the consumer a product from land cultivated with wellness. Geese don't necessarily make this wine, but they for sure don't duck out on the responsibilities. Eighty birds stay on the 2
hectare Vignalparco vineyard and help compact soil, compost, and control harmful insects. No tractors have entered since 2015.

91 Points - Wine Spectator
"Ripe cherry, raspberry, pomegranate and floral flavors are backed by accents of graphite, earth and spices, plus dusty tannins. This red tightens up on the finish, yet the fruit flavors persist. Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Malvasia Nera. Drink now through 2035. 4,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported." -BS, 2/28/26
