Visila is one of the wine symbols of Podere La Marronaia and the San Gimignano area.
Vinification with soft pressing and fermentation at a controlled temperature allows the production of this wine.
Harvesting is done exclusively by hand, for optimal wine, during the first weeks of September, when the grapes are ripe. In the first stage of fermentation, the skins are macerated, and subsequently decanted in steel vats for 6 months at a temperature ranging between 13-17 ° C. The bottle aging takes at least two months.
DEDICATED TO
Visila della Marronaia owes its name anagram of the name “Silvia” which is dedicated this wine. Native of San Gimignano for generations, inextricably linked to this territory as this noble and ancient wine, only the Vernaccia di San Gimignano DOCG could represent her.

I visited the winery and got to taste this wonderful wine with lunch. Upon completing my second glass I ordered a half case which was shipped to my home in Rhode Island a few weeks later. It is refreshing, flavorful and serious.
