In fact, they were in the 1920s, when the Marchese, inspired by Bordeaux and the aristocracy of the past, dreamed of producing a breed of wine, a real pure blood. Transferring to the Tuscan estate in the second half of the 20th century, the Marchese Incisa della Rocchetta began experimenting, planting some French viticultural barbatelle in a wine-growing area that was far from being vitally unknown.
