The Story
The Lupe e Sirene vineyard only makes Riserva Brunello in good years. In off years it is lowered to Brunello. One of the original vineyards at the property, it means "the wolf and the siren". The reason is that you can see the ocean from this vineyard and due to this the ocean winds have an influence on the vines, therefore it is a marriage between the sea and the land.
About Podere le Ripi
Producer Story
The estate has been called Podere Le Ripi since the year 1200 when the area was inhabited by shepherds and farmers. In 1997, I bought these 54 hectares
of pure, unspoilt and wild land from a Sardinian shepherd and three years later began planting the first vines. In fact, I had just wanted to buy a lovely house in
Tuscany but I fell in love so deeply with this untouched landscape that I became a wine-grower.
