Donatella Cinelli Colombini is a legendary pioneer in the world of wine. With a long history in Tuscany – her great-grandfather, Giovanni Colombini was one of the founders of the Consorzio del Brunello – Donatella has worked tirelessly not only to craft incredible wine but also to champion the role of women working in the wine industry. All of the people who work at Donatella’s properties, including the head winemaker, Valérie Lavigne, are women, which is a unique situation in Italy and a beacon of progress for women in the wine industry globally.
