Hermia
I.G.T. TUSCANY WHITE
A wine in which fermentation and aging in terracotta is rediscovered, dedicated to the cellarman Hermia, who really existed 2100 years ago, a slave of the rustic villa of San Giovanni on the Island of Elba. On behalf of her master, Hermia purchased in Minturno, in southern Lazio, large jars, called dolia, on which she stamped her name next to the figure of a dolphin which refers to an ancient and fascinating legend of Asia Minor.
