Fattoria Corzano e Paterno sits on 200 hectares in San Casciano Val di Pesa, a Tuscan commune located just southwest of Florence. Founded by Swiss architect Wendelin Gelpke in 1969, the farm — owned and managed by the Gelpke and Goldschmidt families — is renowned for its production of world-class wine, olive oil and sheep's milk cheeses. Following Wendel's passing in 2001, his nephew Aljoscha Goldschimdt took over as winemaker and managing the estate. Joschi is a farmer first; his 20 hectares of pristine vineyards are organically tended and are cropped at a low yield. Following the lead of Paolo de Marchi of Isole e Olena, he has planted the new, high quality Sangiovese clones with tight spacing in order to create wines of distinction and elegance.  In 2005, Joschi was joined by Wendel's daughter Arianna, who had then completed her studies in enology and viticulture and has managed the cellar ever since. Under Joschi's leadership, the next generation of his family is also taking an increased role in the vineyard and cellar, with his son Will joining the team in 2018.

Corzano e Paterno's I Tre Borri, is a complex Tuscan masterpiece made from 100% Sangiovese. The wine is aromatically beautiful, with layers of high-toned red berries laced with earth and spice. The mid-palate is spectacular, brimming with vibrant, spiced fruit with just the right touch of rusticity, and the finish is long, with very fine tannins. Drink now for the delicious primary fruit or allow to age gracefully in a proper cellar for up to 10 years.
