Enrico Santini was born and raised in the area of Bolgheri, and he decided at 32 years of age to devote himself to viticulture. His decision to plant vineyards and dedicate his life developed out of his love for the land and the microclimate of this spectacular Tuscan coastal area. This passion influenced his decision to implement organic practices within his vineyards, a further conviction on the part of Enrico to achieve a perfect harmony between the vine and terroir, thus obtaining the maximum results imaginable between the combination of these elements. Enrico has made a name for himself as one of the most dynamic and respected producers in the prestigious Bolgheri DOC. As one of the only wine producers in Bolgheri who was born and raised in the area, he has a deep commitment to the region that developed out of his love for the land. Enrico planted his first vineyard in 1998 and transformed the garage and the cellar of his house into a wine cellar. The estate produced its first wines in 1999 but was quickly recognized as one of the future stars under the Bolgheri appellation. The awards came early and marked out Enrico as a rising star, the true promise of Bolgheri wine.
