From now until 2028In the heart of Tuscany, just outside Florence, Tenuta Il Palagio has been the haven of singer Sting and his wife Trudie for more than 20 years. Nestled in the Chianti hills, this magnificent 26-hectare vineyard is farmed organically and pulses with the spirit of Italy. On these sun-drenched slopes, Sangiovese reigns supreme. We teamed up with the estate to craft a signature wine that captures Tuscany’s identity in both aromas and flavors.
