Poderi dal Nespoli Nespoli Prugneto Sangiovese di Romagna

Prugneto is made entirely from Sangiovese, making it a perfect expression of this grape in Romagna. The style in this region is somewhat lighter and fruitier than in Chianti. In the latter, the altitude of the hills gives the wine a robust character and high acidity. Il Prugneto is a unique vineyard, beautifully situated on the hills that form the foothills of the Apennines, where winemaker Celita herself lives. The vineyard has a special history, as it was the first vineyard purchased by the owners. Sangiovese develops a special tension and freshness here, always combined with a slight firmness.

Poderi dal Nespoli awarded with numerous prizes

Founded in 1929, Poderi dal Nespoli is one of the most historic wineries in Emilia Romagna. Located about 20 kilometers from Forlì, it is surrounded by 30 hectares of vineyards. Today, as in the past, the winery is managed by the Ravaioli family. Now in the third and fourth generations, Fabio Ravaioli and his cousin Celita currently run the estate. The two are dedicated to the local Sangiovese grape and have been recognized with numerous awards for years. The location of the vineyards and the valley's geography contribute to a microclimate that is particularly ideal for viticulture. The winery prioritizes respect for the environment, including the reuse of water and heat.
