The bottles commemorating the Unification of Italy reach Siena
Here is “UNA” the wine dedicated to the unification of Italy. The two
UNA bottiglie dell'Unità d'Italia
bottles, one of red wine and one of white, contain small amounts of wine obtained from 40 autochthonous grape varieties 40 from our country, two per region. For Tuscany the variety chosen was Sangiovese and the wine used was Brunello di Montalcino
The wines celebrating the Unification of Italy are consequently a summary, or a blend as the winemakers may say, which symbolically unites the Italian vine growing world.
