Label / history
The label bears the motto “Those who believe the most always win!” Fossi gives each of his wines its own name and label, using sayings, quotations and aphorisms connected with its story and character. The winery produces 30,000–50,000 bottles annually, depending on the weather and the harvest from each vineyard.
