Thybris

Thybris was born from an encounter with the Sangiovese grapes planted in the vineyard overlooking Corbara Lake. When the oenological team came upon the healthy bunches, it felt the mission to cultivate their extraordinary characteristics and promote the red wine identity of this gifted area. The name is a tribute to the vineyard’s proximity to the Tiber river, so important in history and so decisive for the winery’s viticultural choices.
