Island of the Tuscan Archipelago that “looks” towards Bolgheri, Capraia, in the province of Livorno, as well as Bolgheri, is famous for its sea and severe landscape, and for having been for more than a century, between 1873 and 1986, an Agricultural Penal Colony, an ante litteram project for the recovery and reintegration of prisoners into society, via agricultural work.
An island where viticulture has been present for a long time, with typical and widespread varieties in the Archipelago such as, for example, Aleatico and Vermentino, on which small wineries have invested, and where one of the most important names in Italian wine is now about to arrive. Not for business, but for a “territorial patronage”, landscape, and social project.
