Tenuta Fertuna – Loday – D.O.C. Maremma Toscana – Cabernet Sauvignon – Tuscany – Avvenice

“Laudemus!” We exclaimed after tasting the first vintage.

The respect for the “terroir” and the rigorous selection have made this wine possible. It is the symbol, the flagship of Fertuna and thanks to the constant quality, this wine has become, in the various markets, the symbol of the Maremma and of the products that this land can offer.
