Villa Papiano 2023 Terra! Sillaro (Albana)

The Winery

Villa Papiano is a captivating estate nestled amidst the pristine, densely forested hills of
Italy's Modigliana in Romagna. At 1,900 feet above sea level, its organically farmed vineyards thrive on ancient sandstone soils, yielding wines that are both savory and vibrant.

Francesco Bordini is one of four siblings involved in the winery, but he's the genius behind the brand's success. Francesco embodies a deep understanding of each grape variety he's chosen for his family's property. With a profound respect for the environment, he crafts Sangiovese wines (mostly) that are expressions of their unique parcels within the estate.

At Villa Papiano, amidst the interplay of height, light, and soil, these wines are a testament to the harmony between humanity and nature, Villa Papiano embraces artisanal and biodynamic methods that prioritize observation, attention to detail, and a deep connection with the land.
