Anaini pays homage to the name of an eminent Etruscan family. It was within this ancient civilisation that the wild grapes of the Maremma woods were domesticated, an event that paved the way for the prestigious winemaking history of this area. The intense spicy character of Anaini represents the most authentic and refined expression of Pugnitello, an ancient native vine of the Grosseto area, whose name is probably due to the shape of the bunch, similar to a small fist.
