Producer story

The Tenuta Marsiliana, located on the Maremma coast in Tuscany, has been owned by the Corsini family since 1759. Carlo Ferrini, a multiple-time winemaker of the year award recipient, serves as a consulting winemaker. Principe Corsini is one of Italy's most historical lineages. The family members have been actively involved in Italy's art scene by owning one of the country's largest private art collections. Principe Corsini produces wine in Tuscany's Chianti Classico and on the Maremma coast. The Maremma's Tenuta Marsiliana estate covers approximately 2,850 hectares, with only 30 hectares dedicated to vineyards.
