Lumeo 2020 - Oliviero Toscani

About the wine

It all began with a lot of courage and even more visions, a small farm and two horses at the end of the 1960s - Rocco's father, Oliviero Toscani, every year invested all his savings in his dream of owning his own land here near the now celebrated Bolgheri. After having planted over 4,000 olive trees and a herd of Appaloosa horses, Cinta Senese pigs, Angus cattle and homing pigeons, this creative, down-to-earth family felt like growing their own vineyard. On 12 hectares, they now cultivate organic vines in a kind of amphitheatre with a breathtaking view of the Tyrrhenian Sea. In 2014, the trained photographer Rocco took over the business from his father. Today, with a passion for origin and nature, together with winemakers Attillio Pagli and Valentino Ciarla and agronomist Stefano Bartolomei, he produces artisanal, expressive wines that are second to none.
