The presentation of the celebration tile for the 2011 vintage and of the T-shirts with the same design took place yesterday in the Teatro degli Astrusi in Montalcino in the presence of Giovanna Ferragamo who together with the President of the Consorzio Ezio Rivella launched the charity action in favour of the Misericordia di Montalcino.
The Confraternita della Misericordia was born in medieval times (first traces date back to 1244) with solidarity as a main goal. From then it has never stopped operating emerging especially in disastrous events. In Montalcino it was founded in 1846 from the 14th century Compagnia di Maria Santissima della Pace. Today it is made up of 80 voluntary workers who, every day of the year, at any time of day operate in assisting the ill and those in difficulty.
