Sansasia is the crown jewel of Icario’s wines, a limited-production Sangiovese that represents the heart of the Icario family. Named in honor of Sandra, Sabine, and Silvia—the owner’s two daughters and wife—this wine is a dedication to the legacy of Icario. Crafted through a collaboration of the owner, our team, and renowned winemaker Bernabei, Sansasia is made from the finest selection of Sangiovese grapes across our entire estate.

Using the traditional "governo alla toscana" method, we’ve enhanced the bold character of this wine, creating a Sangiovese with remarkable depth, complexity, and elegance. Every bottle of Sansasia is a tribute to the passion and dedication behind its creation, produced in limited quantities to ensure its exceptional quality.

In 2020, our winemaker tasted the Trebbiano and immediately sensed something extraordinary in its raw character. Inspired by its complexity, he was determined to ferment it in oak, but during the chaos of harvest, the only barrel we could find was an unexpected treasure—a half-American, half-French oak barrel, originally crafted for a wine fair. This unique combination of woods imparted bold flavors, adding richness and depth to the wine. The result is a Trebbiano with a strong, vibrant taste that marries the warmth of American oak with the elegance of French oak, creating a structured, yet refined wine. Today, we’ve made this barrel our signature, using it exclusively to bring out the full power and nuance of this exceptional wine.

Donna Silvia, a sparkling tribute to the owner’s wife, is a wine that radiates elegance, class, and beauty—just like its namesake. Crafted from Sangiovese grapes in the heart of Tuscany, it invites you to discover the local terroir through a unique, effervescent perspective. Its antique rosé hue and fine, lingering perlage captivate the eye, while the bouquet offers a sensory journey of wild berries, zesty citrus, and delicate rose petals. Each bottle embodies the grace and character of Donna Silvia herself, making it a true celebration of refined taste and elegance.
