Story
The Red "House and Church" of Lenzini takes its name from the locality where the vineyards are located, in fact, located between the house of Michele-Benedetta and the church of the small village of Gragnano. Merlot vines have been acclimatised in these lands for centuries and grow luxuriant in a living soil, pure and rich in biodiversity. A "reasoned viticulture", as defined by the winery, allows to obtain healthy grapes that tell the moods of the vintage and the naturalness of the land. In the cellar, in the same way, we continue with what the winery defines as "emotional enology". It is a minimally invasive approach that prohibits any form of intervention on the must such as clarification, filtration or addition of sulphites. The fermentations occur spontaneously for the intervention of indigenous yeasts in tanks without any temperature control. It is then aged in steel and cement for about 24 months.Producer
Tenuta Lenzini comprises 13ha of vineyards nestled in a beautiful amphitheatre located near the village of Gragnano in the heart of Colline Lucchesi. Benedetta Lenzini and Michele Guarino, the husband & wife team behind this young and dynamic project, converted the estate to organic in 2007 and to biodynamic few years later. Their wines are pure, clean and energetic, and true expressions of the varietals: Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, that have been used here since Napoleonic times.Goes Well With
