One of the most exciting and interesting Sauvignons we’ve had. Stunning, pure Sauvignon, that is almost electric. Wonderfully mineral, green tinged and spiked with wild herbs like lemon balm, fresh peas from the pod, bruised herbs, warm hay with medium body and fresh acidity. The name Tresche is a reference to the complex love affairs in the court of the Medici that are the basis of the birth of Villa Papiano in the distant 1400s. The label is inspired by one of the most famous paintings in Romagna and portrays a young girl engaged in crushing grapes. Aged for 8 months in concrete eggs and tonneaux.

Located in the unique terroir of Modigliana, on the border of Emilia Romagna and Tuscany, Villa Papiano’s vineyards are the highest in the area,planted on terraces between 450-570 metres above sea level.Their wines are defined by the estate’s high elevation and steep slopes, ancient soils of marl and sandstone, and unique microclimates created by the dense forest that surrounds them. Farming organically, in a way that respects their incredible surroundings and winemaking with minimal intervention, the Bordini family focus almost exclusively on indigenous varieties and old clones. These are remarkable wines from a terroir that we’readamant will soon be the talk of the town.
