Tenimenti Luigi d'Alessandro
The winery Tenimenti di Luigi d'Alessandro is an impressive estate of great historical importance for the Cortonese area, which in the last two decades has taken on the role of leader in the growth of the territory thanks to the enhancement of the Syrah grape variety. Purchased in 1967 by Luigi d'Alessandro, today the estate is owned by his son Massimo and Giuseppe Calabresi. The sought-after company style, careful extractions in winemaking, and absolute rigor in the transformation phase make Tenimenti d'Alessandro one of the reference wineries in this territory. The winning choice has also been to focus exclusively on Syrah for the red grape vineyards, planted on the gentle and sunny clay hills of Manzano.
The stylistic setting of the winery's wines fully reflects the company philosophy: the wines express the warmth and fruity-spicy richness of the grape-territory combination, with characteristics of good depth in the selections. A winery that today represents a fundamental stop for those who want to discover and "taste" the fascinating terroir of Cortona.
