Winzerwoche | Weingut Brancaia

In the organizer's words:

Our Winegrowers' Week kicks off with a winery that has stood for modern elegance and top Tuscan quality for years: Brancaia. On October 11, we welcome the renowned winery to the Pfistermühle - a house that sets standards in modern Tuscan viticulture with a clear signature and uncompromising quality.

Under the direction of Barbara Widmer, wines with a clear signature are produced - powerful, precise and full of character. The winery is particularly well known for its Il Blu, a cuvée with cult status, but Chianti Classico and Maremma also demonstrate the diversity and depth of the range.
