Avignonesi

Avignonesi is located in south-eastern Tuscany surrounding the hill town of Montepulciano, home to Italy’s first DOCG red wine, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Conceived in 1974 and named after a member of the founding family, Avignonesi was purchased in 2009 by Virginie Saverys, who has worked tirelessly since then to convert the entire property to organic and biodynamic viticulture. Her goal has been to craft distinctive, genuine wines, all 100% estate grown, that fully express the special traits of every single vintage and the singular characteristics of the Avignonesi terroir. Through the support of ultramodern technology and an international young team of winemakers and agronomists, Avignonesi continuously renews its commitment to excellence and quality, focusing its efforts on producing DOCG wines made of 100% Sangiovese.
