DONNA LU’ – IGT TOSCANO BIANCO

This wine is dedicated to Donna Lucrezia, a female figure linked to the history of Fraternita dei Laici. It is a blend of Chardonnay, Grechetto and Vermentino grapes from our vineyards. The label was created by the Japanese artist Noriko Hirokami who, starting from the logo of Tenute di Fraternita reinterpreted it in a modern way.
