EVENT PARTNER

EXCLUSIVE EVENT PARTNER: PODERE LA REGOLA

Exclusive Partner of the event is the winery PODERE LA REGOLA: a winery where Art, Wine and Nature come together.

Located just 4 km from the sea, in the Tuscan hinterland where the Cecina river crosses the valley near Riparbella, the La Regola winery, 20 hectares of vineyards located partly on the plains and partly on the hills, produces award-winning wines of the highest quality.

The winery has been owned by the Nuti family for three generations, but only since 1990, when Luca and Flavio Nuti took total control, has it found its own precise identity, imitating in some ways, in a territory that is in some ways similar, the success that their cousins from Bolgheri have achieved throughout the world.
