The legend of Philemon and Baucis is handed down in the eighth book of Ovid's Metamorphoses. Zeus and Hermes, wandering through Phrygia in human form, "knocking on a thousand doors, asked for hospitality everywhere and everywhere they were denied welcome. Only one house offered sanctuary: it was a hut, built of reeds and mud. Here, Philemon and the pious Baucis, united in chaste marriage, saw their beautiful days pass, growing old together while enduring poverty, made sweeter and lighter by their tender bond." Zeus unleashed his wrath against the Phrygians but spared the two spouses, transforming their poor hut into a luxurious temple and offering to grant any of their wishes. Philemon and Baucis only asked to be priests of the temple of Zeus and to die together.
When Philemon and Baucis were close to death, Zeus transformed them into an oak and a lime tree joined at the trunk. This wonderful tree, which stood in front of the temple, was venerated by the faithful for years.

Bauci, an agile and lively Viognier, is an austere wine with great character. To the typical richness of the vine, it combines in the mouth a sharp soul, typical of our territory, given by the minerality and natural acidity. Not at all banal, the nose has hints of white peach and aromatic herbs, including sage and wet stone. It comes from the Vigna di Borea, facing north. It reflects hot days very well with the contrast of cold nights, in which it benefits from the currents arriving from adjacent woods.
