"From this terroir, generations of the De Ferrari Corradi family have committed themselves to
bringing forth the aromas and pure character of the Sangiovese grape, locally called Prugnolo Gentile, to reach its most elevated expression. The goal of Boscarelli is to globally elevate this
historic appellation of Tuscany through exceptional winegrowing and winemaking.
The winery’s oldest label of Vino Nobile and the most representative of the family’s
philosophy. Since its first vintage in 1968, it has continued to represent almost half of total
production. The approach is to create a wine that combines freshness, elegance, complexity
and great aging potential."
85% Sangiovese Prugnolo Gentile, 15% Canaiolo, Colorino and Mammolo
"It is our oldest Vino Nobile label, the most representative and emblematic of our work philosophy. Since the first edition in 1968 it has always constituted about half of the production; Its composition and aging have remained substantially unchanged,"
