These Vi Vini wines are produced and brought to you through a collaboration between Fox Beverages and La Ginestra, a 100% worker-owned and managed Tuscan farm. In 1978, a group of people claimed some abandoned land in Tuscany. With the help of goats, they cleared the fields and planted grain, legumes, and vines. The farm is La Ginestra. The wine is Vi Vini.

Since 1989, they have practiced organic, biodynamic agriculture, producing vibrant, natural wines that are an expression of the terroir. Their approach is driven by passion, and respect, with little interference, as the grapes are transformed into wine. Their vineyards teem with life.

La Ginestra continues to push into newer directions, as it is now mostly composed of a younger generation who live on and work the land together. Their wide range of wines both honor the Chianti and Riserva DOCG and also push into newer expressions with macerated whites and fresher, lighter reds.
