THE COMPANY

Michele Scienza is inside the world of wine since his childhood: the great-grandparents and the grandparents were vinegrowers in Trentino, his father Attilio a viticulture professor. After a winemaking education, in 1998 he had the opportunity to start a new life-project in Bolgheri, together with his wife Annalisa: the idea was to create a completely sustainable artisan winery. The link with Bolgheri was born thanks to Attilio, who deeply studied the territory and its evolution in the wine scene in the last 30 years. Knowing every inch of Bolgheri, he found this small estate, hidden among woods and hills, located in the greatest area of the appelation and devoted to viticulture since the mid-nineteenth century. Michele’s work is dedicated to the production of territory wines, exploring ancient conceptions of wine-making. He personally takes care of vineyard and cellar with sensibility and skills, focusing the vinification on removing rather than adding. Today he is one of the most original interpreters of this area, with elegant and fine wines, an extraordinary personality which perfectly represent Bolgheri’s terroir.
